September is Ovarian Cancer Month


I tweeted yesterday with a link to support ovarian cancer research. I mentioned it this evening to a dear friend, who, I'm afraid, is all too well with the subject. As a ovarian cancer survivor she told me that September is Ovarian Cancer month and I think it well worth mentioning again---

Please visit this link and Seventh Generation will donate 1$ for each person who signs up. It's free to you, and Seventh Generation is a company Green Paper Company truly hearts. We applaud their generosity!

Learn more about ovarian cancer here. It is a blind disease, often with out symptoms, so we encourage all women to familiarize yourself with the basics.

Other September events in support of Ovarian Cancer research:

Alexandria/DC area: Rock, Paper, Cocktails
Atlanta: Overcome Ovarian Cancer 5K Walk
Georgetown/DC area: Georgetown Cupcakes (Mondays in Sept.)

Do you know of an event in your area? Please post a comment and let us know...

Compared with the slick, high profile Think Pink events planned for October and Breast Cancer awareness, we're surprised how little media play ovarian cancer receives. Let's make sure we align support against this incredibly devastating silent disease. Think Teal!
