TEAL RIBBON OVARIAN CANCER-501(C)(3)

BE THE ROAR Four years ago, cancer tried to take me twice in one year - ovarian cancer, and breast cancer. I survived. My girlfriend didn't. And her last words to me were, "Take my whispers from the grave, Debra, and be my ROAR." So I did. I turned my Pain into Purpose, and my Message into Mission, and I founded Teal Ribbon Ovarian Cancer- a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Because here's what nobody tells you: In 2026, 1 in 91 women will hear, "You have ovarian cancer." ♋️ Over 21,000 will be diagnosed. Over 12,700 will die. Not because there's no cure. Because they didn't KNOW the signs in time. That's why my mission is simple: Women will be educated, men will be informed. Learn the B.E.A.T. signs - B- Bloating, E- Eating less and feeling full quickly, A-Abdominal pain, T- Trouble with your bladder. If you see something, say something. Trust your body. Speak up. Seek care. That's what ROAR means: R-Recognize. O- Outcry. A-Activate. R-Rally. When we catch it early, the 5-year survival is 89%. Education IS early detection. So here's my easy yes for you today: Share this with every woman you love. And give $10 for 10 — that's just two cups of coffee ☕️☕️ at https://tealribbonoc.org/10-for-10-campaign/ $10 could save a woman's life. Your $10 could save HER life. I'm Debra Wold. I'm alive to tell her story and mine. And together, we will be the ROAR. SHARE: A if you struggle with going to the doctor? A if you don’t know what are the 4 early warning signs of ovarian cancer. A JOIN THE GRASSROOTS MOVEMENT CALLED “THE ROAR” A if have any companies, corporation, groups, platforms looking for a Keynote Speaker “Pain into Purpose, Message into Misdion”.

Out of thousands of orgs — we were chosen. I cried when I saw it. My surgical scars are my motivation, and this tells me our whispers are being heard. Because ovarian cancer whispers — it doesn't scream. I woke up one morning in IL looking 6 months pregnant overnight. Doctors dismissed me. I nearly died. One of my guests who attended my presentation, there 15-year-old daughter was just diagnosed. We can't wait for women to know the signs.

No worries - God gave me a second chance, and I'm not wasting it. My name is Debra Wold from Naperville, Illinois, and four years ago cancer tried to take me twice in one year. First, ovarian cancer. Then, just two months after my first major surgery, I heard the words no one wants to hear again: "You have breast cancer too." Two cancers. One year. Surgery after surgery. Biopsy after biopsy. And believe me — I hated those biopsies. But I survived. Many of my beautiful Teal Sisters did not. I wear teal for ovarian cancer and pink for breast cancer — and I wear them for the women who can't anymore. While I was fighting for my life, my young daughter was traumatized watching me fight. I had to hold her and delay my dream of starting a nonprofit. That pain showed me we need to heal not just the women, but their children too. That's coming next. But I couldn't wait any longer. I turned my pain into purpose and my message into a mission. I founded Teal Ribbon Ovarian Cancer, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to early detection education, patient support, and community outreach. Why? Because my own advocacy saved my life. There is NO early detection test for ovarian cancer. It's called the silent killer because the symptoms whisper - bloating, pelvic pain, feeling full quickly, bathroom changes — until it's too late. I teach women what I wish someone had taught me: 1. The early warning signs of ovarian cancer. 2. How to advocate for themselves — how to speak up and make doctors truly listen. 3. How to document their symptoms with a simple process I created, so they walk into that appointment prepared and powerful. Why I'm asking you today: My beautiful Teal Sister made me promise something before she took her last breath. She held my hand and said: "Deb, take my whisper — and be my Roar!" That is why I do what I do. That is why I'm asking you. Every single dollar you give goes to save a woman's life. This isn't just a donation. It's a Roar. Here is exactly what your gift does: $25 + - Prints 50 Early Warning Symptom Cards to place in salons, churches, and doctor's offices $50 + - Sponsors a newly diagnosed sister with a support, hope, and advocacy packet $100 + - Funds a community education workshop to teach 20+ women how to save their own lives $250 + - Helps us reach an entire underserved community $500+ - Makes you a founding Roar Partner and helps us launch healing programs for children of cancer patients They say God gives you a second chance. He's given me many. And I am beyond grateful. Will you help me keep my promise to my Teal Sister? Please donate today — and if you can't donate, please SHARE. You never know which woman on your timeline needs to see this today to save her life tomorrow. With love, hope, and a mighty Roar, Debra Wold Founder, Teal Ribbon Ovarian Cancer 501(c)(3) 4-Year Thriver, Ovarian & Breast Cancer Naperville, IL #TealRibbonOvarianCancer #BeHerRoar #OvarianCancerAwareness

Who knew our message, would catch the attention of GoFundMe. My heart is full today. On September 22, 2026, GoFundMe featured “Teal Ribbon Ovarian Cancer”, in their official blog on ovarian cancer symptoms, signs, screening, and how to help. Under the section “Organizations supporting people affected by ovarian cancer,” they listed us as #3 — Teal Ribbon Ovarian Cancer. To the entire GoFundMe team: my board and I, thank you from the bottom of my hearts. You didn’t just list our name. “Teal Ribbon Ovarian Cancer”, You saw the work we do every day — the quiet conversations with frightened women, the education that helps someone recognize the early signs (B.E.A.T) the patient shepherding that reminds families they are not alone. You gave our mission a platform, and for that I am deeply grateful. GoFundMe, you are so much more than a website. You are a bridge of compassion. Every day you help people facing medical crises, sudden emergencies, and overwhelming expenses find the support they desperately need. You give ordinary people a way to show up for one another with kindness and generosity. In a world that can feel so heavy, you make hope practical and real for so many. And that is exactly why this moment means so much to us. Because too many women are still missing the early signs of ovarian cancer — just like I did. Too many are diagnosed late. Families are devastated, children and caregivers are wounded. Too many walk this road feeling alone. At Teal Ribbon Ovarian Cancer, we are working every day to change that story. We educate. We advocate. We walk beside patients and caregivers. We turn pain into purpose. GoFundMe saw that impact. Now we’re inviting you to be part of it. If this message touches your heart, will you stand with us? Your support helps more women recognize the signs early, receive guidance when they need it most, and know they are never alone. You can read the full GoFundMe feature and support our work here: https://www.gofundme.com/c/blog/ovarian-cancer-symptoms-signs-screening-and-how-to-help Thank you, GoFundMe, for believing in the power of community. And thank you, dear friends, for helping us turn awareness into action and hope into healing.
