EndoFound’s 13th Annual Blossom Ball will be an evening to remember on Thursday, May 15th at The Pierre in New York City. Join us as we raise our voices for endometriosis and recognize all those who have worked so hard to bring awareness to our cause. The Blossom Ball is a beautiful and lively gala focused on raising money so EndoFound can continue its important advocacy work, outreach, and education to schools, and fund landmark research that gets us each year closer to a cure.
I hope you will mark this date in your calendar and join us for an evening of unity and hope for a better future in Women’s Health!
