KEEP ABREAST Event Welcomes Sponsors

HERS Breast Cancer Foundation (HBCF) is gearing up for their 14th Annual KEEP ABREAST (KAB) 5k Walk, 5k/10k Run and Community Expo, and are now accepting sponsorships. All sponsors are greatly appreciated. Those that donate before July 8th will receive placement with logo in the event’s printed brochure. Sponsors after the 8th of July will be included on the HERS Breast Cancer Foundation and KEEP ABREAST website with logo.

This year’s annual September community fundraising event that celebrates the lives of breast cancer survivors and honors those lost, is sure to reach record numbers. Taking place on Saturday, September 21st, we invite everyone from around the Bay Area and beyond to lace up their sneakers and rally family, friends, and neighbors to raise funds and support HERS Breast Cancer Foundation and all those who have battled cancer. Our KAB sponsors enable HBCF to keep the vital programs and special services going and growing.

Sponsorship levels include: Platinum for $15,000, Diamond for $5,000, Ruby for $2,500, Gold for $1,000, Silver for $500, and Bronze for $250.

Whether your company sponsors or you pull a team together yourself to participate in this inspirational walk/run, all participation is a wonderful way to help and support thousands of local women who have been affected by breast cancer. All support is truly empowering to the organization and the clients. HBCF recognizes all sponsors in a variety of ways.

Direct donations to HERS Breast Cancer Foundation are always warmly welcomed as well. Each contribution makes a huge difference.  $25 provides a specialty bra, $35 provides a post-surgical garment, $150 provides prosthesis, and $200 allows HBCF to completely serve a breast cancer survivor, who does not have insurance, with post-surgical products that support her well-being.
