fundraise for low-grade serous ovarian cancer research
We’re dedicated to advancing research and treatment for low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC). By partnering with leading researchers and respected local charities, we’ve created pathways that make it possible for supporters to raise funds to directly fund LGSOC research in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States of America.
Why your support matters
Low-grade serous ovarian cancer receives significantly less funding compared to other cancers, leading to less breakthroughs and slower progress in treatments and survival. Together, we can change that.
By using the links provided on our website, you ensure your fundraising directly supports LGSOC research, helping to fund the next breakthrough and advance our knowledge of LGSOC.
