It was a night to remember, and it inspires us to keep moving forward.

ACTober 2026 showed what can happen when people come together with purpose. When we raise our voices together, our actions speak loudā€”and their impact carries on, well beyond a single night.

From the people who shared their stories and raised their voices to everyone who showed up to support our fight against breast and gynecologic cancer, you helped make ACTober a smashing success.

The night may be over. The action continues.

Several of us attended the YWCA of Rochester & Monroe County Empowering Women Luncheon this afternoon, and we loved the opportunity to share the room with so many powerful community members to support YWCA's mission. Listening to Venus Williams speak about courage, leadership and dedication was so special. A wonderful day!

On Friday, we were very happy to see Doris and Charl as they dropped off their annual quilt donation! For several years, they have made one beautiful quilt per week - resulting in 52 quilts a year. The math says they've made well over 300 quilts for us! Each quilt goes into our PALS Pak for someone who has recently connected with us following a breast or gynecologic cancer diagnosis.

Our hearts are so full during moments like this. Thank you, Doris and Charl, for bringing such warmth to the Coalition year after year! We are deeply grateful.
