They do a lot more than raise awareness. Every year they  help thousands of breast cancer victims with financial assistance.  
  Last time I checked they were spending fifty million on research each year.  
  As you mentioned, they do spend a  majority of their funds on  awareness.  
 
    Raising awareness about  breast cancer is very important, especially in America, with so many young women rarely focused on their health or subtle signs of something wrong .  
 
    IMO their  CEO makes a fair amount for running a charity of than size.   If I'm not mistaken their CEO makes in the six hundred plus range.
   I doubt they could find a capable talented CEO to run Susan Komen, for the same pay as many high school principals, $140,000.00.

 
 I believe they got a bad rap,when they quit donating to planned parenthood a few years ago.
   
 Susan Komen  dropping planned parent hood was likely because more and more  DRS. are convinced, there is a correlation between abortion and breast cancer.
 
 I believe dropping planned parenthood  was the reason a  slander campaign was started  against Susan Komen.
   

  If you know anyone who has been through breast cancer you know it's a terrible disease.

Take look at the United Way, Salvation Army, Susan Komen, etc., to name a few charities and look at what % actually go to charity. Compared to them 15% is pretty damn high.
   
 Tangential to the topic, but Susan G Komen is the biggest scam ever.  
   
 Do not donate to charities that 'raise awareness', such as these leeches. They do not contribute in a meaningful way to finding cures for cancer; they make profits off of 'raising awareness'.  
   
 They literally make money from telling people that cancer is bad.  
   
 Go look up how much their CEO is making each year (easily found with a quick search), and then look up how much they actually contribute to research and/or development - not how much they 'contribute' to 'raising awareness'. Sickening. Truly sickening.  
   
 If you ever feel charitable, please donate to organisations with an actual cause and that can make use of the money positively and in a method that actually benefits society in a meaningful way. Komen is unquestionably not one such organisation.

Apparently only 15% of donated money actually went to charities!! 70% paid for salaries, benefits, office, trans, etc (all comingled under "other").  Now previous tax filings are being frantically re-worked. The book looks like a best seller.

Read a review and it says book is full of accusations and no facts!

You wouldn’t look at any of them but will come back with stupid reply as usual.  

Wingnuts and facts doesn’t get along and they are allergic to facts.

I would not donate money without checking Charity Navigator.
   
 15% of every dollar is not high for any legitimate Charity. It is Highway robbery!!!  
   Where are your fakefacts  coming from, the Daily Kook?  

 
Susan Komen  
In simple Math...... Of every dollar donated to Susan Komen 82 % =   .82  =   82 cents of every dollar goes to  
    programs.  
   18% =  .18  =   18 cents goes to administration, fundraising etc.  

    I normally don't reply to you, I couldn't stop  myself when you bash legitimate charities while  supporting  trash.

Both takes effort. It is lot easier to be ignorant and bloviate which, is what wing nuts do.

The New York Times,Washington Post--hardly right wing outlets--have reported the Clinton Foundation took millions in donations from Russians as they vied for uranium control during Hillary's time at State without reporting it.So the Times is confirming what's in the book Money was given to the Clintons,passed through the Foundation,and it enabled Russia to gain control of a substantial portion of controlling the uranium market in the world.
a Russian investment bank paid Bill 500K for a speech.he received 26 million in speaking fees from entities that donated to his Foundation.Was our national security for sale?
Well, we can't check the emails can we?
  And we are supposed to buy that they were dead broke and now they want to portray themselves as everyday people? LOL.
Get Joe Biden ready(hold your laughter).
