Jill Di-Tommaso was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2008.  

We lost Jill on December 27, 2015.

She fought bravely for EIGHT years.  We are heartbroken and we vow to fight with a vengeance this year! Help us raise more awareness and money than ever before!

Her friend, Laura Smith, worked tirelessly with Jill to raise awareness about this devastating disease.  It was over a cup of coffee that  they founded the girlygirl P.A.R.T.S. 5k Run/Walk for Ovarian Cancer. Laura is more committed than ever to make 2022 the biggest year we have had!

The money raised goes directly to a fund directed by Dr. Ursula Matulonis to research a pre-screening tool for ovarian cancer. Dr. Matulonis is the Director of Gynecologic Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Read more about 

Since girlygirl P.A.R.T.S. inception, our organization has donated over 1 MILLION to this fund.  We are proud to say all of your fundraising is making a difference in the lives of the women in your life.  

P.A.R.T.S. is an acronym that stands for Pre-Screening Awareness Required To Silence ...ovarian cancer.  We cannot do this alone.  This is where our fabulous committee and our fabulous fundraisers come in!!!

 

We need you to grab your friends, co-workers, neighbors and relatives.  Get them on board.  

We are running and walking for our mothers, our sisters, our daughters, our nieces and our grandmothers.

 

THE TIME IS NOW....YOUR ROLE IS CRUCIAL...JOIN OUR FIGHT
