JUNIOR ASSOCIATE BOARD: Dedicated teens who are committed to making a positive impact on the lives of people touched by cancer. The mission of the Junior Associate Board is to promote awareness of GCNYC in the community it serves, organize initiatives and events, provide volunteer service & earn community service hours . As ambassadors of GCNYC, members of this special group have the opportunity to participate in many different ways including fundraising, events, public relations, outreach and recruitment of new members.
UPCOMING: Our 4th Annual It’s Always Something Teen Essay Contest. This contest provides a forum for teens in grades 9-12, living in NYC or Long Island, to write about their experience with cancer, whatever that may be. Information will go out when the contest launches in early 2013.
If you are a teen living in NYC that has been touched by cancer, contact us today! For information on all teen and youth programming, please contact Michele Halusic, Program Manager of Outreach and Youth Initiatives at (212) 647-9700 x243 or mhalusic@gildasclubnyc.org.
