A Successful Walk

Thanks so much for your support! We had a wonderful day! I am certain that it will make a great difference to those who have fallen victim to this disease or who might in the future...

In Canada, one in 70 women will get ovarian cancer. Each year 2400 Canadian women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer and 1700 die of the disease annually, making it the most fatal gynecologic cancer. Even though the statistics surrounding the disease are bleak, the good news is that when diagnosed in the early stages, the long-term survival rate is up to 90%. Funds raised through the Winners Walk of Hope will go to supporting women living with ovarian cancer and their families, educating well women about the disease and funding ovarian cancer research.

If you would like more information about Ovarian Cancer Canada please visit www.ovariancanada.org or for more information on the Winners Walk of Hope please visit www.winnerswalkofhope.ca Thanks again for your support.
