You Can give the Gift of Time

In 1995, the Rivkin family, with the support of Swedish Medical Center, created the Swedish SummeRun, a 5k run/walk. All proceeds from this event benefit the Marsha Rivkin Center. With SummeRun's growing popularity, so too grows the need for volunteers. An energetic and spirited volunteer corps makes the run a memorable and fun experience for all!

In addition to SummeRun, the Marsha Rivkin Center is in need of community volunteers to help us throughout the year as we plan more community based educational outreach programs and fundraising events.

You Can Participate in Research Studies

The Marsha Rivkin Center is the site of several Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center ovarian cancer research studies. The success of these studies largely depends on participation from women in our community. If you are concerned about or are related to someone who has/had ovarian cancer and you would like to help make a difference, the Marsha Rivkin Center would like to hear from you.
