I am sad to inform you that Komen Oregon & SW Washington will be closing it s doors at the end of March, 2021. The decision followed Komen s national leadership s decision to consolidate the 61 affiliates across the country and make all operational services centralized at headquarters in Dallas, Texas. From this point on, all services and programs to Oregon & SW Washington will be provided from the National team. Some good news is that Komen Oregon & SW Washington will keep donations collected here and provide $200,000 to local partner organizations to carry on the legacy of its programs, services and research. Right now, I am not clear on how this change will affect the Komen More Than Pink Walk, locally, or the fate of K103 s Team Janine, but as soon as I know more, you will too. God Bless and thank you for all of your support of this great organization and Team Janine.
