The Granulosa Cell Tumour Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Auckland, New Zealand performing research and providing support to sufferers of GCT. Granulosa cell tumours are a very rare form of ovarian cancer and therefore have received less attention from researchers. Founded in 2004, the foundation’s mission is to provide women with information and knowledge about the disease while raising funds to support GCT- specific research in order to develop more effective treatments.
