Fundraising Honor Roll
Manhattanville Depot Chair Tracey Young will be our honor sister this year.
Tracey Young has been battling cancer for approximately two years: major surgery, chemotherapy, and its side effects. But you won’t find Young moping at home.
Young the first-ever female chair at the Manhattanville Bus Depot will be at her post by 6:30 a.m. weekdays to help union members with issues like scheduling, working conditions, and disciplinary matters.
“I don’t want to sit home dwelling on being sick,” Young said. “I want to fight, and part of fighting is coming to work,” Young said.
She also wants to inspire others with cancer to be strong.
“You can’t give up,” Young said. “If you give up, this cancer will eat you up alive.”
TWU Local 100 members can help raise funds for cancer research, and recognize Chairwoman Young, on Oct. 15 by participating in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk in Central Park. The Working Women’s Committee & Family Assistance has selected Young as an “honor sister” for the union contingent participating. You can register today.
“We want a big turnout, not just to help the American Cancer Society, but to recognize our union sister, Tracey,” said, Giselle Martinez, Working Women’s Committee and Family Assistance Coordinator. “She is an amazing woman who inspires many.”
Local 100 also will be walking in support of the American Cancer Society in the Bronx Oct. 22.
I'm supporting the American Cancer Society and you can, too!

Your support allows the American Cancer Society to continue:
Advocacy
Fighting breast cancer in city halls, statehouses, and Congress by elevating the patient voice to advance policy change through the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN)
Patient Support
Ensuring no one feels alone at any point on their breast cancer journey, from prevention to survivorship, and, for some, the end of life.
Discovery
Investing in breakthrough science to find more - and better - treatments, uncover factors that may cause breast cancer, and improve patients' quality of life.
Health Equity
Ensuring that all people have a fair and just opportunity to prevent, find, treat, and survive breast cancer. ACS and ACS CAN believe all people should have a fair and just opportunity to live a longer, healthier life free from cancer regardless of how much money they make, the color of their skin, their sexual orientation, gender identity, their disability status, or where they live.
