Description
The National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) is dedicated to spreading awareness of ovarian cancer and also improving the quality of life for those who have been diagnosed. Our programs include: outreach to groups throughout Massachusetts, distributing materials that include the symptoms of ovarian cancer; hosting an annual Run/Walk to raise awareness and funds for ovarian cancer; and distribution of information and comfort items to those who are diagnosed with ovarian cancer. We are constantly coming up with new ways to spread awareness and are looking for volunteers to help!
