Rock the Mic for a Cure



I met Turea Hutson when she was just 17 years old and a first time contestant in the Miss Philadelphia Pageant. Turea survived ovarian cancer at age 16 and now at a gorgeous, cancer-free 24 years old is fighting to promote ovarian cancer awareness and to raise funding to find a cure for this disease. Turea created a talent show fundraiser at Plymouth Meeting Friends School and it was a great success! All proceeds were donated to Fox Chase Cancer Center's new Women's Health Center.

















Turea Hutson and Dr. Robert Burger, Directorof the Fox Chase Cancer Center's new Women's Center.

"We're going to treat the whole patient and
focus heavily on each woman's
quality of life."
— Dr. Burger
