Race for the Cure

Sure to be an event worth your involvement, the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure is this Sunday! This event is something that we at Humphreys Flowers make sure to participate in every year. It has become an employee tradition! Catered to any walk of life, Race for the Cure offers a 5k fun run/walk, and a competitive 5k run as well. If the 5k is a little too long for you, there is also the 1 mile fun run/walk as well. Most of us here will be participating in the 1 mile so that our families can participate with us.
Most importantly though, this event is significant because it supports local breast cancer screening, treatment and education programs. The proceeds from the race will mostly remain in the ten Southeast Tennessee and six Northwest Georgia counties that the Chattanooga Affiliate service. The remaining money will go to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure © Award and Research Grant Program.*
Please consider being a part of this great cause. For more information please visit their website at
