Visionaries look to the future—and see infinite possibility.
They challenge the status quo—and make the impossible possible.
They boldly imagine a better world – and lead the charge to create it.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was built on that same vision - of a better world - one without blood cancers.

I am a visionary; I have a vision for a world without cancer, but I need your help. I am working to make my generation the last to see blood cancer.

This year, I’m proud to be a part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign, working to raise as much as possible for LLS’s mission.

I am inspired to help this cause by two very important people in my life. My grandmother, Jessica Craig, sadly lost the fight to Leukemia in the fall of 2014. She inspired many as she never let cancer define her. Jessica continued to love those around her and inspire them even in her hardest of days. I also proudly watched a close friend of my family beat Leukemia after a 3 and a half year battle. Mark Farrell recently graduated from Penn State University. He continues to inspire many with his positioutlook on life and his love for those around him.
