Our Chapter

Chapter Highlights

The GenNow Network Dallas Chapter, formerly Young Texans of the American Cancer Society (YTACS), brings together members from the community to support the American Cancer Society. Since 2007 we have continued to see growth in our impact and look forward to what is ahead for us.

We are proud of all the efforts of our chapter, especially our signature event, BubblyQ, our volunteerism in the Gene & Jerry Jones Family Hope Lodge, the community of support our membership has become, and the difference our time is making in the fight against cancer.

Interested in Becoming a Member?

A Massachusetts native and University of Alabama graduate, Hanna relocated to Dallas in 2019 and quickly sought ways to become involved in the community. Her connection to ACS began during her mother’s second cancer treatment, inspiring her to give back through an organization that had a personal impact on her family. She previously served two years as Bubbly Q Co-Chair, one year as Vice President, and now leads the organization as President. 

In addition to her work with the American Cancer Society, Hanna serves on the board of a private charitable foundation supporting local causes in the DFW area, and is actively involved in the PTA at both of her children’s schools. Professionally, Hanna is the Director of Administration for Nivra Enterprises, Inc, a home services company. 

Mission

ACS GenNow Network chapters implement mission-centric opportunities for members and supporters to further ACS initiatives.

The American Cancer Society is the leading cancer-fighting organization with a vision to end cancer as we know it, for everyone. Together are improving the lives of people with cancer and their families as the only organization combating cancer through advocacy, research, and patient support, to ensure that everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.

ACS GenNow Network educates members on the mission and vision of the American Cancer Society and integrates these into chapter activities. Chapters are encouraged to provide opportunities to support ACS patient support programs and services and fundraising activities.

Mentorship

ACS GenNow Network members are offered opportunities for professional development and networking with other members and chapters.

We value the opportunity to leverage the strength of our GenNow Network along with our strength as the American Cancer Society in order to help provide members opportunities for professional development through mentorship from other members and/or ACS contacts.

By creating opportunities for members to expand their personal and professional networks within the community, we allow for involvement within the chapter to benefit our members in a variety of ways.

Impact

ACS GenNow Network chapters host unique, memorable events to engage communities in raising funds to help end cancer as we know it, for everyone.

The impact component of our GenNow Network chapters is essential to helping support the life-saving mission of the American Cancer Society. From rooftop cocktail parties to poolside social events, our young professionals host trendy and impactful events to raise funds for the American Cancer Society’s vision to end cancer as we know it, for everyone.
