At the Board of County Commissioners meeting on October 7, 2025, Vice Mayor Sara Baxter presented a heartfelt proclamation honoring Nancy G. Brinker for her unwavering dedication to breast cancer awareness. This recognition comes during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a crucial time to raise awareness about the realities of breast cancer, promote education, and encourage early detection.
Nancy G. Brinker, a valued member of the Palm Beach County community, has devoted her life to this cause in memory of her beloved sister, Susan G. Komen, who courageously battled breast cancer.

With such sobering statistics, Nancy’s commitment to fighting this disease is more important than ever. The proclamation not only honors her contributions but also serves as a reminder for all Palm Beach County residents to engage in awareness activities and support one another in this essential fight against cancer.
