2024 Donation Tally

$768,065

Our hope is that everyone, everywhere can live free from the threat of Ovarian Cancer.

As we embark on the 2024 Witchery White Shirt Campaign in partnership with the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation (OCRF), we're proud to have contributed over $16 million to date to support ovarian cancer research in Australia. 100% of the gross proceeds from every Witchery White Shirt sold goes directly to the OCRF to help fund research to prevent, detect and better treat ovarian cancer.

Now in it’s 16th year, the funds raised by Witchery have helped OCRF to support 35 researchers in 20 medical research institutes across Australia, with vital initiatives including:

Funding of one of the world's leading early detection projects - the Active Ratio Test which entered clinical trials in 2018 and has since progressed into expanded clinical trials. We hope that the success of these trials leads to a readily available, early detection test in coming years

Dedicated and specialised ovarian cancer medical research scientists

Development of new technologies that promise more targeted treatment options to improve quality and length of life

Collection and management of ovarian cancer tissue samples for research

OCRF Ambassadors

Amelia, Laura & Anabel Flynn

Over the last 10 years alone, the OCRF has been able to commit more than $16 million to ovarian cancer medical research projects across early detection, treatment, recurrence and prevention, thanks to the White Shirt Campaign.

But there is still work to be done. The statistics remain stark:

The average survival rate of ovarian cancer is still just 49%, highlighting the importance of accelerating medical research.

The OCRF invests in medical research projects that seek to develop accessible, non-invasive early detection methods, better treatment options, preventative measures and reduce recurrence for women, girls, patients and their families, everywhere. The only way to improve survival rates of ovarian cancer is to continue to significantly boost dedicated research funding and raise widespread awareness.

Witchery via the OCRF is proud to be the single largest donor to ovarian cancer research in Australia.

The symptoms of ovarian cancer are often vague. For many women, the only signs are:

Cramps

Bloating

Feeling Full

Needing to urinate more often

All symptoms which accompany benign conditions that commonly affect women (find out more).

In Memory Of

Leane Flynn

7 December 1967 - 5 September 2023

We pay tribute to the late Leane Flynn.

A wife, mother, dedicated White Shirt Campaign ambassador and ovarian cancer patient. She leaves an inimitable legacy of unwavering dedication to raising awareness of ovarian cancer and vital research. Her story represents the many brave women and girls who have faced, or are facing an ovarian cancer diagnosis.

Leane Flynn

Grace Scoleri

Mother of two, Grace was diagnosed in 2020 at just 58 years old with Stage 3A High Grade Serous ovarian cancer. Her diagnosis came by complete chance after experiencing unusual bloating and pain shortly after a massage. In the last six months Grace has had a recurrence and has been receiving treatment.

Emily Jol

Emily was diagnosed with Stage 1A ovarian cancer in 2019, two weeks after her 22nd birthday. Emily’s doctor misdiagnosed her with polycystic ovary syndrome, prescribed her the contraceptive pill and told her ‘to get on with things’. Since undergoing necessary surgery, Emily is now in remission.

Professor Stacey Edwards

Professor Edwards is Head of the Functional Cancer Genomics Laboratory at QIMR Berghofer, QLD. She was one of two OCRF National Research Grant Scheme recipients in 2021. Her current work explores how certain ovarian cancer subtypes develop drug resistance and to develop new, more effective treatment options.

Amelia, Laura & Anabel Flynn

Daughters of the revered White Shirt Campaign ambassador and ovarian cancer advocate Leane Flynn, who sadly passed away in September 2023. Amelia, Laura and Anabel Flynn wish to continue Leane's notable legacy in raising awareness and vital funds for ovarian cancer research.
