Susan G. Komen Florida

What Susan G. Komen Florida does

Susan G. Komen Florida is a regional 501(c)(3) nonprofit affiliate of the national Susan G. Komen organization (EIN 75-1835298), operating across all 67 Florida counties. The chapter delivers a portfolio of patient support and community engagement programs including the Breast Care Helpline (1-877-465-6636), the Patient Care Center, clinical trial information services, financial assistance navigation, educational resources, and an advocacy program that engages 7,009 Floridians. The organization also operates the ShareForCures research-data contribution program and the MyKomen Health digital portal, and runs community-facing activations including the MORE THAN PINK Walk series (Tampa Bay, Miami/Ft. Lauderdale, West Palm Beach) and the Florida Goes Pink October campaign.

The chapter is led by State Executive Director Sean Gross and is supported by a diversified sponsor ecosystem spanning major cancer centers (Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, Moffitt Cancer Center, Baptist Health Cancer Care), financial institutions (Suncoast Credit Union), utilities (Florida Power & Light), media companies (Comcast, Cox Media Group, CBS Miami, WPTV, Hubbard Radio), automotive dealers, retail pharmacies, and consumer brands. Weekly service demand is substantial, with 5,928 people in Florida seeking help and information from Komen each week. The underlying technology stack is minimal—core technology is characterized as not applicable, with the organization relying on a Salesforce-based MyKomen Health portal (komen.my.site.com) and standard CRM/account management tools rather than proprietary platforms.

As a non-profit, Susan G. Komen Florida generates revenue through donations, event participation fees, corporate sponsorships, planned giving, employer gift matching, and grassroots fundraising. All direct patient and caregiver services are provided free of charge. The national organization has collectively invested $1.1 billion in breast cancer research since founding in 1982, with Florida contributing to that cumulative research investment through the parent organization's grantmaking. Specific chapter-level revenue is not publicly disclosed in available source material.

Direct peers

• Susan G. Komen (National Organization): The parent organization of Susan G. Komen Florida, which oversees national research investment, brand, and shared program infrastructure. Comparable in mission, products, and fundraising mechanics, and effectively the platform on which the Florida chapter operates.
• Pink Fund: Provides financial assistance to breast cancer patients in active treatment, mirroring one of Komen's core patient-support offerings. Direct peer in financial-assistance programming for breast cancer patients, though smaller in scale and geographic reach.
• National Breast Cancer Coalition: Advocacy- and research-focused breast cancer organization with grassroots lobbying and science training programs. Direct peer in combining breast cancer research funding with a large advocacy network — Komen Florida reports 7,009 advocates, NBCC operates a comparable model nationally.
• Living Beyond Breast Cancer: National nonprofit providing education, support, and resources to people affected by breast cancer, with strong patient-support programming comparable to Komen's Patient Care Center and helpline. Direct peer in patient-services mission, though smaller in research funding.
• Young Survival Coalition: Nonprofit focused on young women affected by breast cancer, providing support, resources, and advocacy. Direct peer in breast cancer patient advocacy and community-based programming, though narrower in demographic focus than Komen Florida.
• Breast Cancer Research Foundation: Funds breast cancer research globally with a research-grant-driven model and high-net-worth donor base. Direct peer in the breast cancer grantmaking space, though BCRF focuses more narrowly on research while Komen combines research with patient services.
• National Breast Cancer Foundation: National nonprofit funding mammograms, patient navigation, and breast cancer research with an event and corporate-sponsor-driven model. Closest direct peer to Susan G. Komen Florida in mission, fundraising approach, and patient-support services.

Emerging players

• Bright Pink: Prevention-focused nonprofit targeting young women with breast and ovarian health education and risk assessment. Emerging player with thematic overlap to Komen's screening and education programming, though significantly smaller in operations and brand reach.
• Tigerlily Foundation: Younger-demographic-focused breast cancer nonprofit providing education, support, and advocacy, particularly for women of color. Emerging player that overlaps with Komen Florida's patient-support and health-equity priorities but operates with a narrower mission and smaller footprint.

Broad incumbents

• American Cancer Society: The largest U.S. cancer nonprofit, with breast cancer as one of many focus areas plus broad research, patient support, and advocacy programs operating across Florida. A broader incumbent that competes for the same corporate sponsors, walk participants, and donor dollars as Komen Florida.
