Miller, the most decorated American gymnast and recent cancer survivor, will share her story with fellow Oklahomans to raise money for Swine Week beneficiary Oklahoma Project Woman, oklahomaprojectwoman.org a nonprofit dedicated to breast health education and prevention. This year’s fundraising goal is $350,000.
“I’m excited to be back in Oklahoma, in the community where I grew up, to speak,” Miller said. “It’s important for all women to make their health a priority, and I hope that by sharing my cancer story, I’m able to help others going through their own journey.”
Admission is $10, all of which goes directly to Oklahoma Project Woman, but kids age 3 and under are admitted free. Miller will be available for a limited time to sign autographs and take photos with attendees before and after the forum.
