As a woman-founded and led company employing a workforce that is 80 percent female, SusieCakes is joining forces with Susan G. Komen to help find a cure and fund life-saving research, treatment and education about breast cancer.
“Since our founding in 2006, breast cancer has touched the lives of countless individuals within our SusieCakes community, including our cherished friends, families, team members and guests,” says Susan Sarich, SusieCakes founder and chief executive officer. “Our partnership with Komen embodies our commitment to creating a recipe for change and making brighter days for those affected by this disease. For me, supporting Komen is more than a charitable endeavor—it’s a personal mission.”
“We are honored to partner with SusieCakes during Breast Cancer Awareness Month,” says Megan Klink, vice president of West Region for Susan G. Komen. “Together, we can raise awareness and funds that are crucial to our mission of eradicating breast cancer. This partnership is a testament to the power of community and compassion.”
Throughout the month of October, SusieCakes is inviting fans to share their personal stories on Instagram or TikTok using the hashtag #cakesforthecure, or online. The company will send treats from the SusieCakes x Susan G. Komen Collection to select guests who share their stories.
