Our overall goal is to promote a healthy lifestyle for KEHA members and all Kentuckians through education about health issues. Please take a few minutes to become familiar with the many opportunities to be involved with our Food, Nutrition, and Health programming. For full details, refer to the Food, Nutrition, and Health section in the KEHA Manual.
One of KEHA’s main health objectives has been to assist in funding ovarian cancer screening and research at the University of Kentucky. This program began in 1977, and members were asked to donate $1 each per year. In recent years, many homemakers have contributed or raised much more than $1 each. As of May 2023, KEHA’s lifetime contribution to the program is more than $1.77 million.
If you would like to send a donation, mail a check to: Debra Rolen, KEHA Treasurer, 53 Irick St., Stone, KY 41567. Please note “ovarian cancer fund” in the memo of your check and include a note indicating your county and club.
