INDIANAPOLIS, July 10, 2009 — Publicis Indianapolis announced today that Women’s Oncology Research and Development (WORD), a nonprofit organization that helps women defeat gynecological cancers, has selected Publicis to assist in the development of an educational outreach program.

After recently receiving funding from the Department of Defense for an educational media campaign, WORD will be able to help women in understanding, preventing and fighting gynecologic cancers. WORD is working in partnership with Publicis and Purdue University’s Regenstrief Center of Healthcare Engineering. The national campaign will reach out to women by providing the tools necessary to make informed health decisions.

“WORD is very passionate about educating and informing women about how they can prevent and conquer possible health risks,” said Dr. Linnemeier, one of WORD’s founders.  “We are excited to be partnering with Publicis to communicate our scientific and clinical research.”

“Publicis has great respect for WORD’s vision and commitment to educate women about potential cancer risks,” said Tom Hirschauer, president of Publicis Indianapolis. “We look forward to assisting this organization in building upon its goal.”
