Lena Horne (1917–2010) wasn’t just a dazzling entertainer; she was a fierce advocate for social justice. Her grandmother Cora Calhoun Horne (1865-1932), a civil rights activist and suffragist, raised Lena with her fiery spirit.

Cora organized with YWCA’s Red Cross Unit and collaborated with YWCA inspiring Lena to do the same. In her success, Lena would help YWCA campaigns to uplift marginalized communities.

They prove that YWCA succeeds through generational influence.

World Cancer Day is an international day observed every February 4th to raise awareness about cancer, encourage its prevention, and mobilize action to address the global cancer epidemic.

Cancer is a disease that has impacted most of us in one way or another.

Maybe a family member or a friend has been diagnosed; or maybe you yourself are at risk for developing or have already been diagnosed with cancer.

Our Cancer Screening Program can help you walk a path to a healthier life with a focus on education, overcoming barriers, and referrals to screening services.

Our Program works to address and eliminate the barriers and disparities preventing Fulton, Montgomery and Schenectady Counties residents from being screened for various cancers impacting our community.

We currently have a strong focus on Colore**al Cancer Screening, awareness and education as it is the 2nd most prominent cancer impacting our communities.

However, we can assist you with information on how to access screenings for other cancers as well through the New York State Cancer Services Program.

https://www.health.ny.gov/diseases/cancer/services/

Knowledge and action together are powerful. Reach out today to learn more about not only potential risk factors of Colore**al Cancer, but also how and where to go to be screened.
