Team's Student Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser
Dear Friends & Family, Â
Â
All of us probably know someone who has battled cancer and witnessed the awful toll it takes on them and their loved ones- physically, and financially. It’s hard to understand how this disease can still be affecting 1 out of every 3 people, and that all of us will most likely be impacted by cancer in some way, at some point in our lifetimes. Today, we have decided to take a stand against this trend.  We are Gracie Mehling and Jill D’Ambrosio and we are very excited to share with you that we have “signed up to save lives.’ This means that we have accepted our nomination to participate in The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year program. Student Visionaries of the Year is a seven-week philanthropic competition for high school leaders seeking to make an impact in the fight against cancer. The campaign kicks off on March 2nd and culminates on April 21st. Â
We are juniors at Central High School and some of the things we enjoy are being in the Ag program, helping others, showing leadership and being involved in our community. We are incredibly honored to participate in this program alongside an outstanding group of fellow students. More importantly, we are proud to be part of something that will help bring an end to blood cancer. Â
We are reaching out to all our family and friends to ask for their support in reaching our goal to raise $200,000. Not only will your support help us win the competition, but it will also help LLS fuel advancements in cancer treatments that are beginning to benefit patients with many other types of cancer, as well. We hope to be able to link a research grant to our donation in honor of those fighting, everywhere. Â
If you would like to join our campaign and help find a cure, checks can be made payable to The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and can be collected beginning March 2, 2023. Please note TEAM DOUBLE TROUBLE on the check. You can send your donation to 296 S. Dickenson Ave., Fresno, CA 93706. You can also donate on this page and stay updated on all of our fudnraising activites. All donations are tax deductible.Â
Thank you in advance for your support!Â
Sincerely, Â
Gracie & JillÂ

I would like to express my support for team Double Trouble Gracie Mehling and Jillian D’Ambrosio campaign to support Leukmia & Lymphoma Society as Student Visionaries of the year. As we all know, cancer particularly blood cancer is a devastating disease that affects millions of people in the US and worldwide. Unfortunately, many families are directly affected by cancer, and I believe that we can make a significant difference in the lives of those impacted by this illness by supporting fundraising campaigns like this one. As a member of the community, I believe that it is our responsibility to support such initiatives. It is essential that we come together to raise awareness and funds for family support and cancer research so that we can make a meaningful impact on the lives of those affected by cancer.
