REI Teams Up With Black Diamond and the HERA Foundation
REI is our newest 7 Summits partner. They will be taking the message of ovarian cancer awareness and women's health regionally in special Climb for Life promotions starting late fall 2003 -2004. This represents an opportunity to reach a larger and broader audience in more geographic locations. Stay tuned for future updates and information.

2nd Annual HERA
Ovarian Cancer Climb for Life
September 11-14, 2003

Salt Lake City, Utah
Hosted by Black Diamond



Our first year was a success. Over 90% of the money raised went to research, awareness and to help those battling cancer. Satellite events took place in areas that included among others Las Vegas, San Francisco and the McMurdo Ice Station, Antarctica.

Help us Make a Difference in Women’s Lives
Building on last year’s success, year two promises to be a great weekend for a great cause. Climbers will once again gather in Salt Lake City to raise money and awareness for ovarian cancer. You won’t want to miss out!
