OCRFA was created in 2016 when they combined forces with Ovarian Cancer National Alliance into a full-spectrum organization for research funding, advocacy and patient support. OCRFA grew out of Ann Schreiber’s own personal experience with ovarian cancer. Liz Tilberis then editor-in-chief of Harper’s Bazaar formed a team twenty years ago started in her back yard later stepping up to serve as OCRFA’s first president, propelling the organization to a national platform.  OCRFA is the largest non-government funder of ovarian cancer for innovative and promising research and continues to fight for NY policies on Capitol Hill.

QVC and OCFRA have joined forces for the cause benefitting OCFRA. Audra Moran was quoted as having said that each year the proceeds generated from QVC’s Super Saturday not only benefit women currently undergoing treatment for this horrible disease but also brings us one step closer to eradicating it once and for all.
