Join the Western & Central New York Chapter, along with the Students of the Year Class of 2019, as we kick off this year's seven week fundraising campaign!

Join us at the Grand Finale, where we will celebrate the hard work of our candidates and team members, and announce the 2020 Student(s) of the Year! The evening will include complimentary valet parking, dinner, a 21+ cash bar, a silent auction, and the awards program. This event is free to registered candidates, their parents, LLS Board Members and SOY Task Force Members.

Candidates, team members, and parents are invited to join us at the Kick-off, where we will celebrate the start of the 2020 Students of the Year campaign. Candidates will have the opportunity to get to know their teammates better, meet other candidates, and be reminded of why they are supporting LLS after meeting our Honored Hero. The event will include appetizers, an awards presentation for the 2020 Candidate Hall of Fame, and is free to all 2020 registered candidates, team members and parents.

Get Ready to Fundraise! What better way to kickoff our campaign than with a little friendly competition? 

Candidates and their teams will come together at Dave & Buster's at the Irvine Spectrum to kick start their Students of the Year campaigns! It's a race against the clock in this competitive scavenger hunt. Each team will search for items, interact with staff and play games to find answers. Don't forget your team cheer for bonus points!

Come join and support our Class of 2020 Students of the Year candidates in a fun-filled evening that includes dinner, drinks, and silent auction all in support of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
