Running for a Cause: Supporting Ovarian Cancer Research in Memory of Bonnie Redding
Welcome to my donation page! My name is Bri, and I am dedicating my participation in the Falmouth Road Race this August to the memory of my beloved aunt, Bonnie, who fought a courageous battle with ovarian cancer in 2020.
Why I'm Running:
Ovarian cancer is a cause that's deeply personal to me, and I'm committed to raising awareness and funds for the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) in honor of my aunt and all those who have been impacted by this disease. NOCC's mission is to save lives through the prevention and cur of ovarian cancer, while also improving the quality of life for survivors and caregivers.
About the Falmouth Road Race:
The Falmouth Road Race is not just any race—it's a chance for me to make a difference. By participating in this iconic event, I'm not only pushing myself physically but also striving to make a meaningful impact in the fight against ovarian cancer.
How You Can Help:
Your support can make a real difference. By donating to my fundraising campaign, you'll be contributing directly to NOCC's efforts to fund research, provide support services for survivors and their families, and raise awareness about ovarian cancer
Description
On August 18, 2024 I will be running in the 2024 Asics Falmouth Road Race in Falmouth, MA as a member of National Ovarian Cancer Coalition's Team Teal. My efforts will help improve the lives of women, families, and communities touched by ovarian cancer. Over 225,000 females are living with an ovarian cancer diagnosis in the US alone, and close to 22,000 are diagnosed annually. There is no early detection test and all females are at risk. I am dedicated to making a difference with my miles!
You can support my efforts by making a tax-deductible donation today. Support will go to provide funding for research, education & awareness and quality of life programs which include:
- Meal delivery through the NOCC Comfort for the Soul Program / Professional counseling through NOCC Comfort for the Mind Program / Financial Assistance to those near or above the poverty level in treatment / Educational & Comfort Kits distributed at major hospitals to newly diagnosed and those in recurrence / Peer to Peer support groups / Educational programs including Ask the Experts, DigiTeal, Rejuvenate Luncheons & retreats.
In this year of great challenges, one even greater challenge remains, saving more lives from ovarian cancer. Dollars raised for the NOCC support national programs and local market initiatives which include: heightening awareness of the subtle signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer, assisting newly-diagnosed survivors and those in recurrence throughout the country through food security programs, financial assistance, and mental health counseling, providing ongoing support to caregivers and advocating for the advancement of ovarian cancer research.
