Help the ovarian cancer community advance research, improve access to patient care and promote advocacy.
Support the National Agenda for Ovarian Cancer.
As you know, the Department of Defense funds great research on ovarian cancer through the Ovarian Cancer Research Program. The bill that contains money for this program is about to be voted on by the full Senate. Ovarian cancer research is under-funded, and we desperately need research on a screening test and treatments!
We need you to tell your Senators to increase the funding for ovarian cancer research through the Defense Appropriations Bill!
Please go to http://capwiz.com/ovarian/issues/alert/?alertid=10079061 and fill out the action alert – and send this to all of your friends, family and group members. Please customize this letter with personal experience or conversations that will help the staff and members of Congress understand why this research program is so important.
When the bill moves into conference to iron out the differences between the House and Senate versions we anticipate needing more, but targeted action.
