OutRun Ovarian Cancer, or OROC, is a volunteer-driven, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to raising ovarian cancer awareness and money for research and education. Founded in 2003, OROC events have generated funds allowing the group to donate more than $2,500,000 to ovarian cancer research and education in Northeast Ohio.
The Mission
OROC is dedicated to creating an active community of hope and empowerment for those touched by ovarian cancer through awareness, education and early detection. OROC strives to put a new face on ovarian cancer-one of hope and encouragement.
