Making A Difference With My Miles for NOCC TEAM TEAL!
I have the privilege of running for Team Teal again in honor of my dear friend, Madeline Woodward. Dollars raised for the NOCC support national programs & local market initiatives to heighten awareness of the signs & symptoms of ovarian cancer, assist patients throughout the country, provide ongoing support to caregivers, and advocate for the advancement of ovarian cancer research. Thank you in advance for all of your support through donations and encouraging messages. Mads' Army is running Falmouth! 🤍🦋






Description
This August, I will be running in the Asics Falmouth Road Race in Falmouth, MA, as a member of the 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 / Mental Health Support / Financial Assistance to those near or above the poverty level in treatment / Case Management / Educational & Comfort Kits distributed at major hospitals to newly diagnosed and those in recurrence / Peer to Peer support groups / Educational programs including Teal Talks An Ovarian Cancer Podcast, In Person Education Series, and Patient Animation Guide.
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.
Your donation will save lives ~ thank you for your support! To learn more about this great organization, go to ovarian.org
