The Canadian ReDesigners Association has partnered with the National Ovarian Cancer Association (NOCA) to ensure that women currently in treatment for ovarian cancer have a comfortable and harmonious room in their home in which to focus on recovery.

ReDesigners across Canada are volunteering their time, talents and skills to create such "havens". NOCA's "Turn Up the Volume!" campaign is in high gear. Together we can raise awareness of the disease that has whispered for far too long.

The campaign is designed to Turn Up the Volume! on a disease that:
- affects 1 in 70 Canadian women
- is diagnosed in 2,300 - 2,600 Canadian women each year
- and claims 1,500 lives a year across the country.

If you are, or know of, a woman undergoing treatment, contact NOCA toll-free at 1-877-413-7970 to find out how you can benefit. Their website is http://www.ovariancanada.org/.
