Toronto, ON, February 23, 2012 - The LOVE HER event for Ovarian Cancer Canada awareness took place at the Fairmont Royal York in downtown Toronto. It is the only national charity dedicated solely to overcoming ovarian cancer. This inspiring event featured a fashion show by Canadian designers Judith & Charles, musical guest Shannon Butcher who sang a mix of classics and a touch of modern music, Canadian comedienne and actress, Jessica Holmes and a silent auction benefiting ovarian cancer in Canada.

The Karen Campbell National Award for Research Excellence was awarded to Dr. David Huntsman.

Ovarian Cancer Canada provides support to women and their families coping with the disease, raising awareness among the general public and providing research for early detection devices and on a larger scale, a cure. Ovarian cancer - like all cancer, knows no limits and can affect all of us, so show your support for the Love Her event!
