On February 17th, Options Community Services launched its first capital fundraising campaign to raise $1.5 million for affordable housing units. The money is currently being raised through a partnership with 50 local women, all of who have pledged to raise $25,000 each in support of this project. Surrey 604 is encouraging public support of this project by featuring each of the 50 Women of options. Today we introduce Susan Tucker, owner of Susan Tucker Massage Therapy.
Tell us your name, a bit about who you are, and your background? *
My name is Susan Tucker. I am a White Rock massage therapist, who along with a partner, has raised two awesome young men in the South Surrey/White Rock area. We have lived here for 22 years and love calling the City by the Sea home.

What achievements in your life are you most proud of? *
My various volunteer and advocacy programs.
Why did the Women of Options affordable housing campaign resonate with you? Why are you supporting this initiative? *
I firmly believe that a community is only as good as the sum of its parts. Therefore it is important to support all members of the community. Also, whereas I’m blessed to live and work where I do I appreciate the fragility of life circumstances. I think I am motivated to help because I firmly believe in “There but for the grace of God go I”.
