Why We are Participating in Making Strides

DSC_0010.jpg

Each year, hundreds of UFT members, along with their families and friends, stand united in the fight against breast cancer. At Making Strides against Breast Cancer events in all five boroughs and on Long Island, UFT members walk to honor and remember loved ones, support survivors and raise money for a cure. The UFT and its state affiliate, NYSUT, raise more than $1 million each year for breast cancer research, advocacy and patient services at the Making Strides walks,. 

Please join us this year as we walk for a cure!

Welcome to our Team Page. We've formed a team because this cause is important to us. We want to help. And walking and raising money in our local American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event is the best way we can do that. We all have different reasons for participating but we share a determination to help save lives from breast cancer.

There are so many ways that the money our team raises helps. It’s helping fund innovative research. It's providing free information for people dealing with the disease. It’s providing rides to treatment and places to stay for people who have to seek treatment far from home. In short, our money is helping save lives. Consider donating to our team and helping advance the cause.

How We Support the American Cancer Society

Of course we walk in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event. And we solicit donations from family, friends, and other supporters. But we also schedule fundraisers in lead-up to the big event. Bake-sales, car washes, and countless other types of events. And we promote those on social media, through Facebook and Twitter, by word of mouth, and through flyers at work and around the neighborhood. The success of fundraising events depends on two things - hard work and getting the word out. And we're out to do both. Keep an eye out for our fundraising events.

Join us. Donate today. Or walk with us.
