Komen Race for the Cure®
April 14, 2012
Downtown Jackson

Baptist’s Team Captain for the Komen Race for the Cure®, Crystale Walker, is inspired to recruit as many Baptist employees as she possibly can to participate in this year’s Race. She’s doing it in much of the same spirit that drove Nancy Brinker, the Race’s founder, who promised her sister, Susan G. Komen, that she would do everything she could to make breast cancer a thing of the past.

Crystale is rallying the Baptist team in memory and honor of two sisters, who both lost their lives to breast cancer.

We hope you will join Crystale and Baptist as we support this important cause.
