Organiser's Description
NEWK'S CARES STORY:
Our annual 5K will benefit the Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance (501c3). Ovarian cancer hits close to home for the Newks family. Lori Newcomb Co-founder of Newks Cares and wife of Newks Eatery Co-founder and CEO, Chris Newcomb was diagnosed with stage IIIC ovarian cancer in February 2013. Her story is all too familiar for many women, as one in 70 will develop this disease. It is the fifth leading cause of death in women. We at Newks Eatery look forward to your help in participating in a fun, positive event that benefits OCRA, the largest global organization dedicated to advancing ovarian cancer research while supporting women and their families.
20,000 women are diagnosed with OC this year and less than half will survive the next 5 years.
