What is Specify for a Cure®?
Specify for a Cure® is the cause marketing program of The Mohawk Group, benefiting Susan G. Komen for the Cure®. As a corporate partner, we have made a commitment to provide ongoing support to Komen for the Cure with our corporate donation and additional contributions based on carpet you specify for your projects. Our goal is to help spread awareness about breast cancer and the importance of early detection.

Specify for a Cure began in 2001 with a commitment to our community of architects and designers, many of whom have been touched by breast cancer, either directly or indirectly. The program has had an overwhelming response from our customers and employees, and support has continued to grow. 2011 marks the 10th Anniversary of the program, and we are pleased to celebrate this ongoing partnership with Komen in the fight against breast cancer.

• Since then, we have contributed more than $3.9 million to Komen on behalf of our customers and employees.
  
  
• The Mohawk Group is a proud member of Komen's Million Dollar Council.

How can you participate?
Take a moment to think about the people you know, and the lives that have been touched by breast cancer, directly or indirectly. Is it someone in your family — a mother, a sister, a daughter, an aunt? A friend of the family? A co-worker or business associate? Let your commitment begin here, with the conviction that this disease can be conquered. Know that your next specification will contribute to the fight against breast cancer.

• It's simple — just say yes. Let your sales representative know you want to make a contribution to the fight on your projects when you specify carpet from The Mohawk Group—Karastan Contract, Lees, Bigelow, and Durkan*. Find out more from your local sales representative.
  
  *In 2011 Mohawk will donate $.05 - $.25 per square yard of select carpets that are specified for 500 yards or more, registered and sold, with a guaranteed minimum donation of $150,000.
  
  
• For your contribution, we extend to you our gratitude for your business and will send an acknowledgement certificate regarding the donation made on behalf of your company.

What is Susan G. Komen for the Cure®?
Nancy G. Brinker promised her dying sister, Susan G. Komen, she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever. In 1982 that promise became Susan G. Komen for the Cure and launched the global breast cancer movement. Today, Komen for the Cure® is the world's largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. Thanks to events and programs like Specify for the Cure®, Komen for the Cure has invested more than $1.9 billion to fulfill its promise, becoming the largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to the fight against breast cancer in the world.For more information, visit: www.komen.org.
