The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is powered by people who imagine a world without cancer.
LLS calls them visionaries. It’s a dynamic collective of tens of thousands of dedicated volunteers who fundraise in their communities, making it possible for the nonprofit to invest $1.6 billion in lifesaving research to date.
That’s why LLS has kicked off its annual 10-week fundraising campaign, Visionaries of the Year (previously Man & Woman of the Year). Committed to “canceling blood cancer,” candidates compete to raise the highest dollar amount in their local LLS regions. And for the first time, they’ll be able to align their efforts with one of LLS’ mission pillars—research, advocacy or patient support—connecting each dollar to a dedicated cause while supporting the LLS vision of a world without blood cancers.
Below, hear from alumni of this impactful campaign and meet this year’s Visionaries.
