News & Events

On Saturday, October 22, thousands of runners lined up at Bayfront Park in Downtown Miami for the 21st Annual Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure 5k. The proceeds of the race benefit Susan G. Komen, which strives to end breast cancer and provide a large network for survivors. Guests were encouraged to share their stories with Jackson and let us know why they were walking/running and supporting this cause.

Last year, Jackson distributed over 5,000 pink super hero capes and that was an overwhelming success. We kept the tradition going this year with fierce pinkleopard print capes and really wowed the crowds this time. People of all agesand gender were proud to wear our capes.

The Susan G. Komen walk marks the largest breast cancer related event of the season. To learn more about how funds raised through this event impact the community, please visit the South Florida Komen website.
