Help raise pledges for the 13th Annual Sprint for Life 5K Run/Walk & Sprint for Sprouts Kids' Run at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center.

All proceeds from Sprint for Life benefit M. D. Anderson's Blanton-Davis Ovarian Cancer Research Program.

With your help, we can reach our 2010 pledge page fundraising goal of $200,000.

Why your support is so important:

Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death among gynecologic cancers. In over 75% of cases, it is not detected until it has already progressed to an advanced stage. This year alone, about 22,000 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with ovarian cancer and over 15,000 women will die. Research can help change these statistics  - to decrease the delay in detection and increase the survival rates.
