September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.
What does this mean? It means it’s time to spread the word again about ovarian cancer and its silent symptoms. • Abdominal bloating, swelling, pelvic pain, pressure or discomfort • Nausea, loss of appetite • Unusual fatigue • Abnormal vaginal bleeding • Unexplained weight gain or loss • Frequent urination, constipation or diarrhea How do we ALL do this? By talking about it with the women in our lives. Post a message on social media. Host a gathering where information can be shared. We are challenging YOU to invite friends and family to a gathering, set a goal, and ask for a minimum donation to support the SHOC Foundation’s mission to raise funds for ovarian cancer research. • Become a voice for the SHOC Foundation – spread the word about ovarian cancer • Host a tea party, luncheon, wine tasting or dinner, have game night, anything to get together • Gather donations (checks or online donations are acceptable) • Tell us about your event or share photos and send to info@shocfoundation.org The SHOC Foundation can provide you with marketing materials for your gathering. If hosting a gathering isn’t possible, please consider making a donation to the SHOC Foundation in honor or memory of a loved one, as we reach our goal of raising $50,000. We’ve done it before…we can do it again! Thank you for making a difference! |
