Carrie & Jason's Crusade

Battling breast cancer is hard work. Hard work to overcome it, for the people affected.
Hard work to treat it, for doctors and other healthcare professionals. And hard work
to find the causes and cures, for breast cancer researchers. That's why we walk so
far on the Breast Cancer 3-Day. To honor the fact that, while a world without breast
cancer is possible, getting there requires hard work.

At 60 miles, the Breast Cancer 3-Day is the longest walk of its kind. For many first-time
walkers, it's the biggest physical undertaking they've ever attempted.

Those who walk for the first time are often amazed at their physical stamina. Many
have never undertaken such a challenge. But they are even more amazed at the
money they are able to raise. Though the fundraising minimum is $2200, the average
amount raised per walker is actually $3000! It's just what happens when you bring
passion and commitment to such an important endeavor.

Every day, we're moving closer to ending breast cancer forever.

Eighty-five percent of the net proceeds of this event go to Susan G. Komen for the
Cure. Every advancement in breast cancer research, treatment, education and
prevention in the last 25 years has been touched by a Komen for the Cure grant.

The remaining fifteen percent of net funds goes to the National Philanthropic Trust
Breast Cancer Fund to provide a permanent endowment for ongoing support of
breast cancer initiatives.
