NAMED

Visionaries have their sights set on effecting change, and do it. High school students Anna Fraps, Cooper Hillebrand, and Aiden Martincic were accepted into the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) 2023 Student Visionaries of the Year campaign. The national seven-week challenge raises funds and awareness for the fight against blood cancers and ends on March 31, 2023.

For months, Fraps, Hillebrand, and Martincic have organized fundraisers in school and throughout the community, including at Primanti Brothers and Blaze Pizza, to support the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The funds raised benefit the LLS mission: to find a cure for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and to improve the quality of life of patients and their families.

Participants in the scholarship and fundraising challenge are nominated for their leadership, passion, and community-involvement
