In the News
- BAYS members are active in the community. We write, blog, and cartoon about our experiences as young people with breast cancer to share our stories with others. We hike, climb, and fight like hell to raise awareness of breast cancer in young people. Here are some publications about our members and by our members that exhibit the range of our talents.
