Top Fundraisers
Team Hope For A Cure
Lia Bhatia (left) and Hailey Miller (right)
Candidates and childhood friends Hailey Miller and Lia Bhatia first discovered a love of giving back as first graders in a child-lead philanthropy club. Since both have family in the medical field, and Hailey recently lost a relative to leukemia, becoming Student Visionaries was a natural choice. They got right to work, holding 23 sponsorship meetings in just 5 weeks—culminating in their outstanding total of $650,000. At just fourteen years old, Hailey and Lia are leading their generation toward a world without blood cancers.

Team CPA, Secure The Cure
Sophia Crockett (Left) and Emma Weaver (Right)
For Team CPA, Secure the Cure, ending blood cancer is personal: both Sophia and Emma have family members and friends who have passed from, survived, or been diagnosed with blood cancer. Their journey has been full of thrills—from raising $200,000 at a songwriters' event to pitching their campaign to a full boardroom of supporters. With their grand total of $648,000, Sophia and Emma are well on their way to supporting patients and survivors just like those they love.
