Danceworks at Hofstra University will be donating all the proceeds from their Dance Production/Show to Ovarian Cancer Research.
Event; Tuesday, March 22nd, 2005 at 8:00 p.m.
All proceeds from that nights show ($5 tickets) go towards Ovarian Cancer. Not only that, but it is going to be a wonderful show (ballet, jazz, modern, hip hop, tap, and lyrical pieces). It lasts about an hour/hour and a half tops. In between pieces we are going to read facts about Ovarian Cancer to increase audience awareness/education. We will be selling the green/teal Ovarian Cancer Ribbons and Bracelets as well. (again, all proceeds go towards the cause).

LI OCEANS INC
a beacon of hope for those affected by Ovarian Cancer & Gynecologic Cancers
About Us:
LI OCEANS is an acronym for Long Island Ovarian Cancer Education Advocacy Network & Support. Our group is comprised of women living with Ovarian & Gynecological cancers, from the newly diagnosed to the long-term survivor.
In 2004, several women personally affected by Ovarian Cancer met, exchanged ideas, shared stories, identified the need for change, merged ultimate values and priorities and then made a decision that would transform lives.
They didn't know where they would find the time, the energy, nor the money to create an organization for women with Ovarian & Gynecologic Cancers, but they forged ahead nevertheless, with hope as their guiding light. They knew that without their understanding, passion and strength that other women with ovarian cancer would continue to suffer in isolation.
LI OCEANS recognized the urgent need for awareness; advocacy and action-they aspired to be the voice for Ovarian Cancer and save the precious lives of our mothers, sisters, daughters, grandmothers, friends & neighbors!
Our goal is to create awareness among women the medical community and the greater population regarding early warning signs and symptoms that may be indicative of ovarian cancer, resulting in earlier detection.
Our purpose is to provide support, resources, networking, and education for those women diagnosed with ovarian and gynecologic cancers. We support the advancement of research for early detection and cure of ovarian cancer.
Our mission is to educate, advocates with the ultimate hope to eradicate this deadly disease!
LI OCEANS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit approved by the IRS. Your tax-deductible contributions allow us to continue our battle against ovarian cancer, to raise awareness in the community and to provide education and support to ovarian cancer victims and their families through a network of survivors.
How Can I Help? We are always in need of volunteers!
We need people just like you! Please Help Get the Word Out!
We need you! Tell someone you love about ovarian cancer and the symptoms to watch. When you care, keeping quiet is not an option. Until there’s a test, word of mouth is best.
Together we can save lives.
Volunteer your time and talents to get the word out.
