Together in Teal Walk
June 15, 2019 @ 7:00 am - 12:00 pm
Join us for the 2019 6th Annual Together in Teal® Run/Walk!
The NOCC’s Frederick Chapter will be hosting its 6th Together in
TEAL® WALK on Saturday, June 15, 2019, at Baker Park, Frederick, MD.
Hosted in communities across the United States, Together in TEAL® – Ending Ovarian Cancer is the signature fundraising series for the NOCC. The funds raised through these events support the organization’s mission focused programs and initiatives that spread earlier awareness of the signs and symptoms, provide quality of life programming to Survivors and their families, and support the critical research needed to fight this disease.
Did you know that ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cancer-related death in women? Unfortunately, there is no early detection test that exists, which means that 1 in 78 women will be diagnosed this year alone with ovarian cancer and that nearly 70% will be in advanced stages when the prognosis is poor.
The NOCC invites you to join the expected 550 participants on Saturday, June 15th for a special ceremony honoring Survivors, recognizing the caregivers that support them, and celebrating the memory of those that we have lost to this disease.
Help support the NOCC’s mission by registering and forming your Run/Walk team today! Registration is open! Visit: runwalk.ovarian.org/frederick
