Imagine…The Power of a Team… Teams are the  backbone of the Susan G. Komen Baton Rouge Affiliate Race for the Cure®.  Team captains encourage participation, establish fundraising goals, support members in realizing their donation and giving goals, assist team members with registration, and much more.  To qualify for a team award, your team must consists of 10 or more members.  So “team up” today with friends, family members, co-workers, faith groups, or anyone else who would like to join the fun for the Race for the Cure in March 2014.

Registering and participating on Race day helps raise breast cancer awareness, but fundraising will help find the cures and provide for local programs. Lead by example and inspire your team members to fundraise.
