WHY IT MATTERS: Breast cancer affects 1 in 8 women in the U.S. and 1 in 1,000 men in their lifetime. In 2025 alone, an estimated 316,950 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 42,170 women will die from the disease. Approximately 2,800 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 510 will die from it. However, some experts say one-third of breast cancer deaths in the U.S. could be prevented with universal access to modern treatments.
In Texas, approximately 23,880 will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 3,330 will die from the disease this year. Susan G. Komen provides direct support to Texans through its Patient Care Center. In fiscal year 2025, Komen provided assistance to 3,711 patients, including $814,400 in financial assistance to eligible people in active treatment or living with metastatic breast cancer.
“The work Komen does for people with breast cancer, survivors and those with increased risk of breast cancer is not possible without the San Antonio MORE THAN PINK Walk,” said Imelda Guzman, Walk chair and Division Director, Culture and Values, HCA Healthcare San Antonio and Central and West Texas Division. “I am proud to serve as their Walk chair for a second year and assist the Komen San Antonio team in bringing together the Central Texas community to make breast cancer services and resources more accessible to those in need.”
Bank of America is the national presenting sponsor and Lilly, Natera, and Novartis are national series sponsors for the MORE THAN PINK Walk and Race for the Cure events.
