IN
SUPPORT OF A VERY WORTHY CAUSE
 The
Ovarian Cancer Research Fund, Inc. (OCRF) is the "Official Charity" of
the Reebok Womens Triathlon Series. OCRF was founded in December
1994 by Sol Schreiber to honor the memory of his wife, Ann, a distinguished
public administrator and her courageous five-year battle with ovarian
cancer.
OCRF is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization devoted to the formulation
of early diagnostic treatment programs and research toward the ultimate
conquest of ovarian cancer. As OCRF strives to find a cure, it also seeks
to support patients and their loved ones in understanding this disease
and its treatment as well as to provide outreach programs and raise public
awareness.
A portion of the proceeds from this Event goes to support their important
work. You can help even more by including a tax-deductible donation with
your race entry and/or raising pledges to help support their important
work. Reebok has teamed with OCRF and the Reebok Women’s Triathlon
Series to start Team Vector (learn

raising effort for a great charity. For more information on the Ovarian
Cancer Research Fund or to print a pledge sheet, click the appropriate
