It is here!!

Everyone with the AROVCC is just ecstatic about this milestone. We have written and produced, with the help of a small army, our very own ovarian cancer educational brochure. It is a dream for several of us to watch this come to fruition. It is our goal to get this brochure in the hand of every woman in Arkansas. We hope that you will take ownership of this and help us reach this goal. If you would like us to send you printed copies to distribute, please email us arovcc@gmail.com

Please go to our signs/symptoms page to download a copy of the brochure.  Please share this with others or keep it to have on hand when you have questions.

We would like to give a special thanks to Dr. Alexander Burnett with the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute & Dr. Timothy O’Brien with UAMS Bioventures  for their contributions to this brochure.

We have received official notification that the AROVCC was awarded a $1,000 printing grant from Allegra Printing through their Allegra Print & Imaging FootPRINT Fund!! Very exciting stuff. Every year, Allegra awards up to twenty grants. This will be a huge help with printing our new educational brochure. Thank you to everyone at Allegra Printing for recognizing our need!!

The AROVCC Board members and committee members have been very busy preparing for a wonderful new year. A few things that have been lined up include:

- Printing of our own ovarian educational brochure

- Distribution of the brochure to all Arkansas Area Health Education Centers and Arkansas Department of Health OB/Gyn offices. (AHEC’s are the primary educational outreach effort of UAMS and the principal means of decentralizing medical and other health professions education throughout the state)

- Preparation and planning for our 4th Annual Awareness Rally, 3rd Annual Survivors Luncheon (August 31) and 2nd Annual Artists for Ovaries (Sept 24). 

Most recently we have had the opportunity to participate in Lilly’s Dim Sum Then Some ”One Day, One Community” – One Monday night a month, they feature a local charity and give 15% of their proceeds of the day to the featured group. Thank you all to everyone that came out and supported the AROVCC!!
