LLS Man and Woman of the Year Grand Finale,

Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States

  • About the event

    The Man and Woman of the Year Campaign is our national 10 week spirited competition to raise funds to help find cures for blood cancers and provide access to treatments. Man & Woman of the Year candidates utilize their leadership abilities to conduct fundraising, as well as building a campaign support team. Every dollar that is raised counts as one vote. Male and Female candidates with the most votes are named the chapter’s Man & Woman of the Year.  This is our sixth year and we are expecting 400 people to attend our JW Marriott Grand Rapids on May 14, 2020 and are hoping to exceed our fundraising goal of $500,000.

    Why should you sponsor?

    Some facts:

    • Every three minutes someone is diagnosed with a blood cancer

    • Every nine minutes someone dies from a blood cancer

    • Leukemia is the leading cause of cancer death of children and young adults under the age of 20

     

    Since its founding in 1949, LLS has invested more than $1 billion in leukemia, lymphoma and

    Myeloma research. LLS-funded research has led to key advances in understanding blood cancers and the lifesaving drugs to fight them.

    Jen is taking a stand against cancer in honor of those that have been affected throughout her life. Many close family friends have battled non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, Leukemia, Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and most recently AML. Her number one goal is to spread awareness and knowledge of the resources LLS can provide to patients and their families. She hopes to make an impact not only financially to this organization but to those who are living this journey.
