Review for Ovarian Awareness of Kentucky, Louisville, KY, USA
OAK is an incredible organization. It not only provides support for those whose lives are closely linked to ovarian cancer but reaches out far beyond that to provide learning opportunities for those in health care and the community at large. They are a small but highly motivated group.
Review for Dominican Sisters Of Peace Inc, Columbus, OH, USA
The Dominican Sisters of Peace have a short history but a long tradition. The vowed members and associates continue to work for the good of those marginalized and poor. Their recent stance supporting the need for immigration reform is worthy of support.

Review for Dominican Sisters Of Peace Inc, Columbus, OH, USA
My association with the Dominican Sisters of Peace began with its beginning on Easter Sunday 2009. This group of 600 vowed religious women works tirelessly to preach the gospel through their lives and through their good works. As they reflect on a world bigger than themselves they reach out to address the needs of the world in small and big ways. They seek to teach through their literacy programs and institutions for education; care for the earth; care for the sick and on and on----with their mission to be women of peace they strive to live peace personally and promote it globally.

Review for Ovarian Awareness of Kentucky, Louisville, KY, USA
My experience with OAK began by accident-a friend had been invited to their annual fund raiser. Being someone who had a diagnosis of ovarian cancer, I also became an honoree! In the years since that introduction, I have watched as OAK supports survivors and their families, reaches out to educate all members of the community about ovarian cancer, advocates within the health care community and in general is a consistently ever present voice for women and their gynocological health. The membership is probably small, I really don't know those numbers but I do know the incredible committment of OAK to life.
