A message from GTA President Brian Ebertz: Breast cancer affects everyone, women and men. That's why we're recruiting men to fight breast cancer through Real Men Wear Pink. Community leaders are determined to raise awareness and money to support the American Cancer Society's mission and save more lives than ever before from breast cancer. Every dollar raised helps the American Cancer Society save lives from breast cancer through early detection and prevention, innovative brea...st cancer research, and patient support. Thanks to the passion of our Real Men Wear Pink supporters, we're able to make a huge impact on the mission to end breast cancer. I believe in pulling community members together in supporting the American Cancer Society. I have been nominated to serve as one of Rochester’s Manbassadors for Real Men Wear Pink. Here is a brief overview: Real Men Wear Pink gives men a leadership role in the fight against breast cancer. Community leaders around the nation use the power of pink to raise awareness and money for the American Cancer Society's breast cancer initiatives, including innovative research, patient services, and education around screenings and risk reduction. It's one important way we're attacking cancer from every angle. As a member of NYSUT’s Board of Directors and the Greece Teachers Association President, I am hoping to spread the word throughout New York in hopes of increasing support for Real Men Wear Pink and the American Cancer Society. My donation page link is below if you would like to make a monetary donation.
