RE/MAX Pleased with Komen Policy Reversal 
Posted 2/3/12 
 
RE/MAX is very pleased that Susan G. Komen for the Cure® has reconsidered their community grant policy.We believe this is the best course of action. This removes the impression of political motivations from their previously bi-partisan, charitable reputation, and allows Komen to re-focus their considerable resources on the serious business of battling breast cancer.

Because of the personal impact breast cancer has had on the RE/MAX family and the tremendous success Komen has experienced for 30 years, RE/MAX has been an energetic supporter of the breast cancer battle for many years. However, RE/MAX never supports specific political candidates or political causes and we are hopeful that politics can remain on the sidelines when such significant health issues are at stake.

We thank everyone who took the time to express their views to point out the many considerations involved in a change of Komen’s policy.

It is our hope that we can put this situation behind us and move forward in a united front in the cause that we all feel so strongly about. Working together, we can more easily achieve the goal of conquering breast cancer and ending the pain and suffering that so many families have had to deal with. 

Thank you.
