Susan G. Komen Fundraiser to be Held Aboard a Cruise Ship

Palm Beach, FL - Susan G. Komen, the world’s largest nonprofit in the fight against breast cancer, will hold its major fundraising event in January aboard a cruise ship docked at the Port of Palm Beach, a first for the organization.  In another first, Komen’s founder, Ambassador Nancy G. Brinker, said 75 percent of the proceeds from Komen’s Perfect Pink Party Gala & Castaway Cruise will remain in South Florida, to be directed to patients with breast cancer health needs. The move will provide immediate assistance to people affected by the hurricanes who are relocating to Florida to continue treatment, Brinker said.  www.fundraising-ideas.org
