National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) – Valley of the Sun Chapter’s 7th Annual run/walk to Break the Silence on Ovarian Cancer® takes place Sunday, December 6, 2015 at the north soccer field area of Tempe Kiwanis Park.
Last year over $70,000 was raised to help in the fight to end ovarian cancer. This year they want to raise $80,000 to help improve survival rates and the quality of life of the more than 20,000 women who are diagnosed with ovarian cancer each year.
All monetary contributions collected for the event will directly benefit NOCC’s local and national ovarian cancer awareness campaigns and educational programs.

Early detection is key in helping fight ovarian cancer. If caught early enough, the survival rate is at 90%. Lerner and Rowe is pleased to help NOCC – Valley of the Sun Chapter’s efforts to raise funds to share the message about the importance of early detection and the many supportive services the chapter offers.
