About STEP UP America

Step Up America for Ovarian Cancer is our annual campaign during September - Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.

Throughout the month, we aim to support individuals in creating their own events to fundraise for research as well as spread awareness about the symptoms of Low-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (LGSOC). We welcome events as large as a city-wide 5k and as small as a group of friends getting together for coffee.

Don't want to plan a full event?  How about create a Step Up America fundraiser? How about join the Step Challenge?

High school and college students can help by passing out free T-shirts on campus. Sign up here.

Whatever you want to do, we want to help you STEP UP!

​Help us support the advancement in treatment options for LGSOC by fundraising, joining our Step Challenge,  or hosting you own event. We want to #colorthecountryteal by supporting hosts who are interested in organizing an event in every state!
