Hundreds turn out to raise money for ovarian cancer at 16th annual T.E.A.L. 5k * Brooklyn Paper
Briefly

"It's been interesting since the pandemic to get our numbers back up, but we're seeing them come back out in force. So it's nice to see more people in person," Esposito-Amery said. "We used to have 5,000 people at this event, [but] even if it's two people or 5,000, we put on the same kind of event, we put on the same show, and really just make sure that people know it's a positive, inspiring, beautiful day for everybody here."
Frey told Brooklyn Paper that research still had "ways to go" when it came to early ovarian cancer detection and treatment but that there was "hope on the horizon."
T.E.A.L. co-Founder and C.E.O. Pamela Esposito-Amery, whose sister Louisa M. McGregor died of ovarian cancer in 2011, told Brooklyn Paper it was a "special day" for ovarian cancer survivors.
The event, organized by the nonprofit T.E.A.L. - formally known as Tell Every Amazing Lady About Ovarian Cancer - drew over 650 participants, many donning the organization's signature color, to raise awareness of ovarian cancer and money for a cure.
