Teal Ribbon Day - How You Can Support

Teal Ribbon Day is held annually on the last Wednesday of February. It’s a day to support Australians affected by ovarian cancer and raise awareness of this deadly disease to help fund research to eliminate this disease from the world. If you’re looking to support this great cause, there are many ways you can help.

Purchase a Teal Ribbon

Teal is the colour that represents ovarian cancer. You can show your support for people affected by the disease by wearing an official Ovarian Cancer Australia Teal Ribbon in the lead up to February 23. If you want to buy a teal ribbon or other teal items, they are available on the OCA website. 

Interflora Ovarian Cancer Collection

Interflora Australia proudly supports Ovarian Cancer Australia (OCA) to help save lives, raise awareness and provide support for ovarian cancer sufferers and their families. Our Ovarian Cancer Collection features six, limited-edition floral arrangements. Each flower gift can be sent to a bold and inspiring woman who has been touched by ovarian cancer to show her how amazing she is. Each flower arrangement and floral bouquet includes white chrysanthemums, roses, carnations and more, such as our Bold bouquet. The bouquet is handcrafted by local florists and is perfectly wrapped and tied with a teal ribbon.

Additionally, when you purchase any product from the Ovarian Cancer Collection, Interflora will donate 5% of each sale to Ovarian Cancer Australia to help raise money for research.

Hold an event

You can host a Teal Tea to help raise awareness and funds to support those affected by ovarian cancer. Whether it be in your workplace or with a group of friends and family, a Teal Tea fundraising event will raise vital funds to support those affected by Australia's deadliest female cancer. 

To plan an event, simply register to receive your Teal Tea host kit. Then choose the date and place to host your Teal Tea and finally, invite everyone you know. It’s that easy! You can register your Teal Tea here.

Make a donation

You can make a direct donation on Ovarian Cancer Australia Giving Day on February 23rd. Every donation you make will provide a woman struggling with ovarian cancer products and services including resilience kits, online support and further research into the disease. Any amount is another step forward to defeating ovarian cancer and is a great cause.
