We understand how difficult the battle with mucinous ovarian cancer is
at every stage. The physical pain it causes. The financial hardships it
creates. The emotional struggles women face.
MOCC Cares packages were the dream of our late
founder, Rhonda. She used them to send sunshine and good wishes to women
fighting the same rare form of ovarian cancer that she had. Putting the
packages together and sending them brought Rhonda such joy.
From masks and hand sanitizer to candy, lotion, art supplies, and
herbal teas, each package is customized for a woman’s unique situation. If you
or a woman you know has mucinous ovarian cancer, we’d love to send out an MOCC
Cares package. Here’s how it works…
