Garth Brooks Album Benefits Komen!
Garth Brooks has joined forces with Susan G. Komen for the Cure in the promise to end breast cancer forever with the release of the “Pink Edition” of The Ultimate Hits album. The album is a new 3-disc set, and contains 30 classics, 3 new songs and a bonus track on two CDs. The set also includes a DVD with videos for all 33 songs, including new and never-before-seen footage. Each CD is packaged with important information to help you protect your breast health, and the health of people you love.
For every “Pink Edition” of The Ultimate Hits album sold, $10 will go to Susan Komen for the Cure. And when purchased using the promotional code cincinnati, $5 comes to us at Komen Greater Cincinnati Affiliate! Just $10 at a time, we have the opportunity to raise millions for vital breast cancer research and community outreach programs.
The album is currently available for pre-orders, and will ship on November 6th. The Pink Edition is available exclusively at Komen’s online Promise Shop. To order now and reserve yours today, go to www.komen.org/garth and enter the promotional code cincinnati.
Together with Garth Brooks, we'll keep moving toward a world without breast cancer!
Who We Are
The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation started 25 years ago with a promise between two sisters. In this anniversary year, we are shifting into another gear, recommitting to finally, once and for all, finish what we started. Susan G. Komen for the Cure: new name, new logo, same promise - to end breast cancer forever.
We are marking this anniversary year with a renewed and impassioned mission that incorporates a new name and logo, a $1 billion commitment and a host of initiatives designed to support its promise to end breast cancer forever. The new name, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, is represented by a new logo featuring a customized version of the ubiquitous pink ribbon.
In the 25 years since its inception, Komen for the Cure has successfully brought breast cancer out of the closet, changing how the world talks about and treats the disease. It has grown to become the world’s largest grassroots network of survivors and activists, investing nearly $1 billion in the cause and turning breast cancer into a priority health issue for women, researchers, health professionals and politicians. Though our organization’s promise to end breast cancer remains the same, the new name, logo and look represent the bolder stance Komen is taking toward fulfilling that promise.
Wear and Share the Promise Ring!
Show your support by wearing the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Promise Ring. This two-color band symbolizes the unbroken promise between two sisters to end breast cancer forever.
Promise Rings come as a set (two for $5) – one to wear and one to share. The rings are made of stretch silicone and one size fits all - the rings can be worn on any finger. Order yours today!
More than 82% of the purchase price of the Promise Ring will support our local research and community outreach programs.
