Race For The Cure - Ready, Set, Lash!

Posted by GladGirl Team on March 06, 2016

This year's Race For The Cure (LA County) could well be the best looking ever, with Glad Lash ready to take position as a sponsor of the event for the first time. With no less that 100 races nationwide, the series will criss-cross the country throughout 2016, raising awareness and much needed funds for the battle against breast cancer. Organizers are expecting 15,000 in attendance at the LA race, which will be run this coming weekend on Saturday 12th March.

Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure® Series is the world’s largest and most successful education and fundraising event for breast cancer ever created. Research dollars have helped support more than:

• 2400 research grants in 49 states and 20 countries
• 460 clinical trials
• 300 research advocates
• 60 partnerships and collaborations
• 60 scientific conferences - komen.org

Support Breast Cancer Research

We've started a team and we'll be pushing hard over the coming weeks to reach our goal of $3000 in sponsorship from the Glad Lash community. Here's the kicker. For each dollar donated via our team page, Glad Lash will match it dollar for dollar, up to $3000! So that's a grand total of $6000 that we are aiming to raise with your help. Please consider contributing to this worthy cause and dig deep. Chances are that you will know someone affected by breast cancer in your lifetime, with one in eight women in the US expected to develop the disease. You can donate via our team page here.
