For the past five years we have partnered with the National Ovarian Cancer Coalitions – Valley of the Sun Chapter in sponsorship of their annual 5K Run/Walk to Break the Silence on Ovarian Cancer.

Join us at the 5K as we walk in support of Valley of the Sun Chapter’s efforts to spread hope, awareness and an increased quality of life to all who have been touched by ovarian cancer.

5K Run/Walk to Break the Silence on Ovarian Cancer

The Coalition is on mission to increase awareness about the early warning signs, symptoms and risk factors of ovarian cancer. Found early enough, women have a 90% survival rate after being diagnosed with this disease.

Funds raised during the 8th Annual 5K Run/Walk to Break the Silence on Ovarian Cancer will benefit ovarian cancer patients, survivors and their care takers around the Phoenix area.

Official Title Sponsor of LV Sportz Foundation Fall/Winter Game-Saver Free Sports Screening Event for Las Vegas Student-Athletes

We are the official Title Sponsor of LV Sportz Foundation fall/winter FREE youth sports screening event Saturday, October 22 at Complete Health and Wellness (2920 N. Green Valley Pkwy, Henderson, NV 89052 – Located Off Ramrod Ave.).

These pre-participation physical exam (PPE) sports screenings are more advanced than standard physicals; they find heart and general medical or physical problems prior to participation that could be considered a serious health risk to young athletes. These exams also provide an opportunity for young athletes to learn more about the physical demands a sport has on their bodies and ways to maintain their overall health and safety.

“Each PPE screening event that LV Sportz Foundation organizes helps protect young athletes from serious harm. Our attorneys are thrilled to be the title sponsor of the foundations game-saver event that will help reduce the number of youth cardiac sports injuries in Las Vegas,” said personal injury attorney Glen Lerner.

Space is limited to this one-day health screening event and pre-registration is required. Visit lvsportz.com/screening for more details, or contact Brian Bartolome, LV Sportz Foundation (702-561-1267 or [email protected]) for additional information.
