Greetings!
It takes a community to cure cancer.
Team Ovarian Cancer was founded to honor the journeys of two courageous women, Mara Castello and Janet Snider, both diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Sadly, we lost Janet, and recently lost Mara in December of 2024. Team Ovarian Cancer raises money to support Dana Farber’s efforts to find a cure for this devasting disease. Check out our video that was produced by WBZ our first year and shown on Channel 4 News and PMC Opening Ceremonies in 2022.
A special thanks to our corporate sponsors:
- Netragard: Gold
- Candlewick Press: Silver
- North Atlantic States Carpenters Labor Management Program: Silver
We are supporting innovative treatments currently being developed by Ursula Matulonis, MD, Chief of Division of Gynecologic Oncology at Dana Farber. Dr. Matulonis has dedicated her life to researching ovarian cancer and uncovering new ways of treating it. She and her department are working on a exciting protocol based on the ability to enhance the power of Natural Killer Cells to kill ovarian cancer cells. There is a Phase 1 Trial that is accepting patients now. For more information.
Team Ovarian Cancer is unstoppable in our support of the important work of Dr. Matulonis and her team. Please join us as we whole-heartedly take on our mission to find a cure. I will continue to fundraise and ride because these funds save lives. Please keep donating so we can make the biggest difference possible.

Thank you for your support for all the people you know who are being treated for ovarian cancer and for those you don’t know yet. Many people will survive cancer because of the research we fund at Dana Farber. Together we can make the impossible, possible.
