The Vermont-New
Hampshire Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure is proud to
announce the availability of grant funds for fiscal year 2008.
Applications for breast cancer and breast health programs from
nonprofit organizations, governmental agencies and educational
institutions in Vermont and New Hampshire are eligible for funding.
The promise of Susan G. Komen for the Cure is to save lives and
end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality
care for everyone and energizing science to find the cure. The
Organization runs one of the most innovative, responsive grant
programs in breast cancer today. Our Affiliate is proud to have
sent $108,450 to the Organization for research in 2007. In addition
to funding research, the Affiliate funds non-duplicative, community-based
breast health education and breast cancer screening and treatment
projects for the medically underserved in both Vermont and New
Hampshire. In 2007, we funded over $325,350 for local community
programs.
Our grant cycle runs from April 1, 2008 through March 31, 2009.
Eligible applications must be postmarked by 5:00 p.m. on January
15, 2008. Announcements of funding will be made on March 10, 2008.
As grants chairperson I am here to answer any questions you may
have about our grants process. To help us be even better stewards
of our money, please let me know if you would like to have your
name removed from our mailing list if you do not feel you will
