conference coming up
This year the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance will hold their eleventh annual conference, titled “Creating Currents of Change,” on Tuesday, July 8 through Thursday, July 10 at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, D.C.
The mission of the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance and its annual conference is to bring together ovarian cancer survivors, families, and caregivers. The conference is the longest-running and largest gathering of the ovarian cancer community in the nation.
Sessions held during this year’s conference include updates on research, extending remission, a clinical trials forum showcasing current trials, and exploration of issues from healthcare practice to advocacy. As well, attendees can register for the Ovarian Cancer Capitol Hill Day for policy issue briefings and meetings with national lawmakers on Thursday, July 10.
The early registration fee for the conference is $150, with cost increasing to $200 after June 1. Participation in the Ovarian Cancer Capitol Hill Day event will cost an additional $100. Online registration is available at www.ovariancancer.org.
I have an idea, if we selected 1 or 2 ladies from the forum to attend this conference, and donated money towards the fees, could we make a go of it? I would be willing to donate , I can't attend, but I know several on here should be able to get away. Some live close to DC, it sounds like a worthwhile adventure into the OVCA field. marty

I think your idea is a good one. I do not live close enough but I would be willing to donate. Let me know if there is something else I can do to help.
Take care,
