REI, Black Diamond & Metro DC’s great climbing gyms, Earth Treks & Sportrock, have teamed up to fight ovarian cancer with our 3rd annual climbing festival, HERA Ovarian Cancer Climb For Life, Metro DC.   The organizers are honored to be working with HERA (Health, Empowerment, Research and Advocacy), a leading non-profit foundation empowering women, the medical industry & communities in their fight against ovarian cancer. 

The low-down:  For your $30 registration fee, we're going to give you a month of climbing, a few grand parties, a friendly competition, free goodies, raffles, friends, laughter, clinics, and the chance to hang out and learn from some top climbing pros.  Yeah, it's a lot for only $30 but we're on a mission. We want to spread awareness of ovarian cancer and help find a cure.  Climb4Life is an easy and fun way to help women and their families who are battling this disease. Ovarian cancer is often called a silent killer. It's not. It has symptoms and it's our mission to let everyone - women, girls and the men that love them – know what's at stake.

Want to do More?.  You can help save lives by talking to friends, colleagues, and anyone you know about ovarian cancer.  We'll arm you with information and useful symptom cards to distribute when you register, and you can find more detailed information and research on this website.  Want to do more?  You can raise additional funds by asking friends, family, co-workers and neighbors to sponsor you.  It's easy.  We promise.  And for those of you that go the extra mile to bring in donations, we've got a few nice things to thank you with.
