Our Promise: To save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all, and energizing science to find the cures. How the Greater Fort Worth Affiliate was Started.... Fort Worth native Rozanne Rosenthal chartered the Tarrant County Affiliate of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation in May, 1992 in honor of her friend, three time breast cancer survivor Joan Katz. When Joan was diagnosed with breast cancer, Rozanne made a commitment to start a Fort Worth affiliate, and in 1992, the first Komen Tarrant County Race for the Cure attracted 1,800 participants. The Race continues to provide an opportunity for people of all ages, backgrounds and cultures to join together in a cause that is deeply personal.
