Planning a Fundraising Activity?
We are honored to be contacted so often by passionate members of our community wanting to organize an event or promotion benefiting breast cancer awareness and research. The Upper Cumberland Affiliate of Komen for the Cure partners with others because it benefits both parties in terms of public awareness.
We want to make this process as simple as possible. In order for us to give each event and/or promotion request its due attention, we ask that you first read through the 3rd Party Guidelines available to assist you in planning your event or promotion. If, after you’ve read the guidelines, you are interested in entering into an agreement with the Komen Upper Cumberland Affiliate, please download the Relationship Proposal From, complete and return to Komen Upper Cumberland Affiliate: 480 One Eleven Place, Suite B, Cookeville, TN 38506
If you decide that the size of your event does not warrant the effort to follow these guidelines, there are three other ways to support Komen:
Option 1: You may want to consider registering for Passionately Pink for the Cure®. This program allows individuals, business and clubs/groups to fundraise for Komen. The website provides resources for your fundraising activities as well as a customizable web page. Click Here to learn how you can become Passionately Pink!
Option 2: You may want to consider not using the Komen name/logo and instead making a general statement that the funds raised will go to a local breast health organization or breast cancer research and support. We would be honored to receive funds raised and would give public recognition for your donation.
Option 3: Rally for the Cure® has expanded their well-established golf program to other events. You can now plan a Rally for the Cure® program for sporting events like tennis, dinner events such as wine-tasting, or group/club activities such as a bridge or book club. Go to www.rallyforthecure.com to learn how you can become a Rally Ambassador.
Option 4: Bowl for the Cure® is a year-round fund-raising and breast cancer awareness initiative sponsored by the United States Bowling Congress in partnership with Susan G. Komen for the Cure®. USBC Associations, Leagues and Komen Affiliates help drive this program through bowling events with fun formats all in an effort to support the fight against breast cancer. Event forms and tools, as well as event ideas are available to help ensure a successful Bowl for the Cure® event at www.bowlforthecure.com.
