Over the last two years we've given $22,000 to local women battling GYN cancers in our area!  A cancer diagnosis is quite expensive and even if you have the good fortune of having insurance, this does not cover many of the costs.  Through our collaboration with the Memorial Health Foundation, we provide comfort care items (wigs, spa services, movie tickets, grocery/gas gift cards), "bucket list" wishes, funding for needed testing for hereditary ovarian cancer, and community education about GYN health and cancers.  All donations are tax deductible and even if you don't want to participate in the 5K, you can make a donation. Just click on the register icon at the top of the page.  Please help us spread the word and check out the pictures from our previous races!
