I am a 20-year ovarian cancer survivor myself and, they are great at reaching out and supporting survivors and those who are going through chemotherapy and radiation treatments. OCC provides gas cards to help with transportation to doctor appointments. They are great.

The Ovarian Cancer Connection is a great organization. The volunteers are amazing and very helpful. They are raising awareness about ovarian cancer and other gynecological cancers. Turning the Towns Teal is an example of an opportunity for volunteers to spread ovarian cancer awareness.

I can not say enough great things about this organization! They have been a godsend to my family during my journey. They are very caring, compassionate, and supportive people.

The OCC is a great nonprofit in our area, and they have worked very hard every year to raise awareness and funds to help local women during a very difficult time in their lives. I enjoy my time volunteering at the annual Ellen Jackson Ovarian Cancer Walk. Every year there are more people than the previous year.

OCC is such a wonderful organization! When in town, I love doing the Ellen Jackson Ovarian Cancer Walk in memory of a dear friend and mother who passed way too soon but left such a beautiful legacy! I always share OCC’s posts. It’s so important! Thank you for all you do!

As a board member and survivor of stage 4 Ovarian cancer the OCC was there to walk me through every step.  The support was just what I needed and when I was put in remission I knew I hade to help make a difference for other as knowing first hand how it impacted me, how could I not join the board!  The love the   OCC, the ladies we support and our board members
