Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, Brainerd Lakes Affiliate needs you!  We are now seeking volunteers to help spread our message about early detection.  Click Here to get the PDF of the volunteer form.

The education committee is made up of volunteers who are interested in using their time to lead projects or events that are integral to the mission of Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, Brainerd Lakes Affiliate.

The following sub-committees (in bold) need leadership (about 10 hours a month) to help implement the  programs listed underneath.  Volunteers are in place to work most events.  The Education and Outreach Coordinator will oversee these subcommittees and schedule education meetings four times a year.   Sub-committee chairs will need to attend these education meetings as well as work with their volunteers as needed.
