On Sept. 24, 2015, multi-platinum singer and entertainer Matt Goss headlined the sixth annual Susan G. Komen 'Honoring the Promise' Gala at The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. Goss sang a rousing choir-backed rendition of his song “Strong,” an inspirational tribute to all those who have been affected by the disease, which has become the theme song for the national organization. The crowd was in awe as Goss gave a stellar performance of the touching song which he wrote and recorded after his mother fought, but eventually lost her battle to cancer last year.
That night the Susan G. Komen 'Honoring the Promise' Gala raised funds for grants for research and for Komen’s 19 breast cancer grantees in the National Capital Region, where the mortality rate from breast cancer is 40 percent higher than the national average.
