Every day during the month of September, ovarian.org will showcase a new celebrity/athlete/doctor/survivor/supporter speaking about their experience with ovarian cancer. The segments are brief, ranging from 45 seconds to two minutes. We are proud to have a wide array of participants, including:
• Joe Girardi, NY Yankees manager
• Carol Channing, actress and survivor
• Dr. Jennifer Ashton, CBS News Health Correspondent
• Dr. Jeff Boyd, Senior VP & Chief Scientific Officer, Fox Chase Cancer Center
• Julie Bain, Health Director, Ladies Home Journal
• Many other wonderful surprise guests!
“September Speaks” is a unique way to hear about ovarian cancer from people of all walks of life who have been touched by the disease; celebrities, athletes, survivors, supporters, and physicians. We hope that you will look forward to visiting our website every day in September, to hear what our compelling speakers have to say next.
Help us to SPEAK UP, SPEAK OUT, and BREAK THE SILENCE on ovarian cancer this September!
The National Ovarian Cancer Coalition has teamed up with the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance (OCNA), the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund (OCRF), and the Gynecologic Cancer Foundation (GCF) to spread awareness of the four main symptoms of ovarian cancer.
Please feel free to print the flyer and distribute in your community!
