Our MIssion
Fight the silence around ovarian cancer—with truth, action and relentless advocacy.
Raise Awareness
Help break the silence.
We’re breaking the silence around ovarian cancer—loudly and publicly. Our mission is to educate, share stories, and make sure more people recognize the signs before it’s too late. Awareness is the first step in changing outcomes, and we won’t stop until every woman knows what to look for—and what to do next.
Fund Research
Science brings hope.
100% of the net proceeds from the Second Annual Fundraising Festival go directly to the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC). Funds are awarded through a grant proposal process to support research focused on early detection and treatment, and providing financial assistance to women and families affected by the disease.
Support the fighters
No one fights alone.
We’re here to support women at every stage of their journey—from diagnosis to treatment and beyond. Whether it’s connecting survivors, offering resources, or just being a voice on the other end of the phone, our community is built on strength.
Cory's Story
Cory Zera was only 47 years old when she lost her battle with ovarian cancer.
Her fiancé, Howard Grobstein, started Cory Fights Back in her honor—a movement to confront ovarian cancer with the same spirit Cory carried into every room.
