About Common Thread for the Cure
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, The Common Thread for the Cure Foundation was established in 2000 to support individuals in the design and furnishings industry— and their family members—who are fighting breast cancer. What started as a grassroots effort by Suzann Burkhead Bray and her brother Scott Burkhead, in honor of their younger sister Sandra Burkhead Campbell—who died from breast cancer—has grown into a trusted source of hope and financial relief, helping survivors focus on healing by easing some of the financial stress that comes with the diagnosis. To date, the foundation has awarded $2 million in grants to 445 recipients across North America, all of whom are in the design and furnishings industry. Raise your hand and join us.
