WASHINGTON, June 15, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Fibroid Foundation, a patient-founded nonprofit announces alliances with the LPGA Women's Network, LPGA Amateur Golf Association and Springboard Enterprise's Women's Health Innovation Coalition. Sateria Venable, Founder of The Fibroid Foundation emphasized the significance of these alliances by saying, "Finding dynamic ways to elevate the conversation on women's health is so important. The LPGA and Springboard are innovative organizations committed to women's well-being."
The LPGA Women's Network and the LPGA Amateur Golf Association:
The LPGA Women's Network and the LPGA Amateur Golf Association alliance elevates the conversation on women's health and the need for self-care. The Fibroid Foundation chapters are aligning with the LPGA Women's Network chapters across the U.S.
"I wanted to partner with the LPGA for many reasons," said Fibroid Foundation Founder and CEO Sateria Venable. "First, of course, I love golf! It helps with spinal alignment, pelvic flexibility, and exercise—all very important for fibroid patients."
The first part of the alliance began on April 28th as an informative webinar exclusive to the members of the LPGA Amateur Golf Association, outlining the benefits golf can provide for women's health as well as providing information about fibroids, which affects the majority of women at some point in their lives. Vice President of LPGA Amateur Golf Association Mary-Lee Cobick stated, "We are proud to align with the Fibroid Foundation to support women's health through education, informational services, and showing health benefits golf can provide."
Continuing with the Fibroid Foundation's efforts, the LPGA Women's Network and LPGA Amateur Golf Association will provide advice and inspiration for new female golfers to highlight the health benefits of the game and in turn promote golf to members of the Fibroid Foundation through #inviteHER Experiences, LPGA Tournaments, and Women's Leadership days hosted across the country.
