First Ladies and Governors will participate in the Super Luncheon program. As our distinguished guest, you will hear a leading oncologist speak, meet those battling the disease, ovarian cancer survivors, community leaders, and other supporters like yourself.

OVARIAN CANCER: THE FACTS

Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death from gynecological cancers in the United States. Education is the most effective protection against ovarian cancer.
