Gianna Mazzoni | Team Pause for the Cause

Gianna's Student Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser

Jan 08, 2025

My name is Gianna Mazzoni and I am a Sophomore at Oak Knoll. I am passionate about LLS's mission as my grandma, Joann, passed away from Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma before I was born. With this loss and some of my other family members battling cancer, I want to aid the advancement of cancer research and treatments. I am so honored and grateful to have been nominated as a candidate for such an important and impactful cause.

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.

 

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.

 

As a global leader in the fight against blood cancer, LLS:

  • Funds cutting-edge research leading to breakthroughs in immunotherapy, genomics and personalized medicine that are improving and saving the lives of patients
  • Provides free education and support for blood cancer patients and families, including personalized, one-on-one support, assistance with identifying and enrolling in clinical trials, and more.
  • Mobilizes thousands of advocates to drive policy changes that accelerate the development of new cancer treatments and break down barriers to care.

Please consider joining this fight by making a donation. All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!

 

Thanks to your support, my efforts will help ensure this generation is the last to see cancer.

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you!

    Thanks for supporting LLS. I have seen much advancement in the fight against Leukemia during the 59 years since my father succumbed. My hope is that someday nobody will die from this disease.
