this organization is a marketing machine.

They CLAIM “for the cure” so NOBODY else is allowed, theoretically, to have a 5k for the cure or “marathon for the cure” or “picnic for the cure”.

I remember statements where komen has some astronomical administrative expense. essentially most of their money goes to raise more money.

As if there would be a single, “the” cure. From all that doctors know about cancer, it is a many-uglied thing representing a cornucopia of cellular dysfunction.

You can have marches for “a cure” or for “cures.”

essentially most of their money goes to raise more money.

I can easily believe this with what I saw and experienced. The numbers are twisted of what they do for the cancer patient...they flaunt the few stories they present...but the numbers of actual patients helped by them are few.
