he Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Visionaries of the Year campaign kicked off its 10-week fundraising effort to raise $75,000 to support cancer research.

The campaign featuring 11 candidates will end on May 9 with a grand celebration, where the candidate who raises the most funds will be declared the winner.

Randy Ollis, a beloved figure, is lending his name and platform to the campaign, motivated by his personal experience with cancer eight years ago.

He emphasized the importance of research, especially for younger patients, and expressed gratitude for the advancements that helped him during his treatment.

Allie Clyne, the honored hero volunteer, expressed her excitement and nervousness about being part of the campaign. She emphasized the importance of staying positive and making friends during challenging times, offering advice to other children diagnosed with cancer.

The campaign is a secret competition, meaning candidates are unaware of each other’s fundraising progress until the grand finale.

This structure aims to foster collaboration and surprise as participants work towards their fundraising goals.
