Sunday, Sept. 25, was a day of hope, celebration and courage as more than 15,000 Susan G. Komen Orange County supporters returned to Fashion Island in Newport Beach for the 25th Annual Susan G. Komen Orange County Race for the Cure. The largest breast cancer fundraiser in Orange County encouraged all participants to raise funds for breast cancer awareness, education and services. Celebrating its 25th Anniversary as a Susan G. Komen affiliate, the nonprofit expects to meet its fundraising goal of more than $2 million. Long after the last Race participant crosses the finish line, Race for the Cure fundraising efforts will continue. In fact, they will go through the end of October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For more information, visit KomenOC.org. / Photos by Christopher Trela
