Strengthening Our Communities. Strengthening Each Other.

Join Team PepsiCo at this year's Susan G. Komen Greater NYC Race for the Cure on Sunday, September 8, 2019 in Central Park. Let's step forward together in a show of support for our colleagues, family members and friends who have been affected by breast cancer. Funds raised support Komen's mission: to save lives by meeting the most critical needs in our communities and investing in breakthrough research to prevent and cure breast cancer.

PepsiCo first participated in the NYC race in 2009 and is proud to field one of the largest corporate teams with more than 1,000 members. Our associates are involved in races across the country, and together we are honored to partner with Susan G. Komen.

Promoting healthier communities is an important pillar of Performance with Purpose, the cornerstone of PepsiCo's value system. We are committed to delivering great performance while improving the lives of people in the communities where we live and work.

If you cannot actively participate on race day, you can still be a part of the team by donating to this significant cause. Everything you do can make a difference.

Let's be 1,000 strong again this year in the fight against breast cancer!

Joanna's Story

The dreaded words nobody ever wants to hear were said to me on February 22, 2019. “Joanna, you have cancer.” Wow. You never know what that really sounds like until it’s said to you. My world changed in that one moment in indescribable ways. And I thought it was bad enough when my mother was diagnosed with Triple Negative breast cancer in 2013 and then again with a hormone positive cancer in 2018! She’s a two-time warrior and my personal hero! The great news for both of us is that our cancers were caught early and small and we have an amazing care team. And that’s why we will walk – for each other and ALL those dealing with this disease – to encourage, educate, and be a part of the solution! Go Team PepsiCo!
