The mission of the Rose Mary Ovarian Cancer Foundtion would not be realized were it not for the outstanding volunteers with which we partner. Their dedication of time fuels our determination to achieve our mission.
Whatever your story: if you’ve had a family member or friend affected by ovarian cancer; if you’ve lost a loved one to ovarian cancer; if you are an ovarian cancer survivor; or if you’re a champion for early detection so that wives, daughters, and mothers might live longer, fuller lives—please consider joining our team!
We would be honored to welcome new volunteers. This is a chance to serve on the “front lines,” and to connect with the community saving lives by enhancing ovarian cancer research.
