The Lowcountry Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure

Nancy G Brinker promised her sister, Susan G Komen, she would do everything in her power to stop breast cancer. In 1982 that promise became the Susan G Komen for the Cure, the world's largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to end this disease. The Lowcountry Affiliate to date has invested more than 2 million dollars for local projects involving breast health and breast cancer awareness.

The Lowcountry Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure is currently offering grants from $5000 to $75000 for innovative projects in the areas of breast health and breast cancer education. The Lowcountry Affiliate serves Allendale, Bamberg, Barnwell, Beaufort, Berkley, Charleston, Colleton, Dorchester, Georgetown, Hampton, Jasper and Orangeburg counties in South Carolina. Grants are available for up to on year and the grant year is April 1-March 31.
