Our History

  Ounce of Prevention has been very successful in creating exciting fundraising events in Marshall County since 2003.  As with any organization we cannot rest on our past accomplishments.  Ounce of Prevention will continue to press forward in raising breast cancer awareness.  We try to make each 'new' event better than any of the events in the past.

Below are some links to events that we have hosted in the past along with newspaper articles about some of our events.
