Dear Friends of Ray of Hope,
Ovarian cancer is often underfunded compared to other types of cancer, despite the significant impact it has on women's health. Fundraising can help to raise awareness of the disease and generate support for research, leading to greater funding and more progress in understanding and treating this devastating disease.
Ovarian cancer is a particularly challenging disease to treat because it is often diagnosed at an advanced stage when the cancer has already spread beyond the ovaries. This is due to the fact that there are currently no reliable screening tests for ovarian cancer.
Overall, fundraising is essential for advancing our understanding of ovarian cancer and developing new strategies for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. It is through these efforts that we can ultimately reduce the impact of ovarian cancer on women and their families.
All funds raised will be donated to The Women's Health Research Program at Froedtert and MCW
