Alex Salzillo Nominated to Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Man & Woman of the Year Campaign for 2020

Man & Woman of the Year

Partner attorney Alex SalzilloJamie Casino Injury Attorneys is proud to announce that one of our partners, Alex Salzillo, has been nominated to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Man and Woman of the Year campaign for 2020. Alex’s goal is not only to raise a significant amount of money but also to raise awareness of LLS and the critical need for blood cancer research and support.

Every year, the LLS’s Man and Woman of the Year initiative seeks to raise awareness and funds for blood cancer research by encouraging philanthropic competition amongst nominees. Over a 10-week period, candidates from across the nation build teams of fundraisers and compete for the title of LLS Man or Woman of the Year, which is given to the candidate who, along with his or her team, raises the most money.

The campaign also honors local children who are themselves blood cancer survivors. In fact, while LLS focuses on fundraising and research on behalf of allblood cancer victims and survivors, it places a particular emphasis on pediatric blood cancer research. Through its Children’s Initiative, a multi-year $100 million campaign, LLS seeks to help children with cancer not only survive—but thrive. The organization has committed to more than doubling its focus on pediatric cancer research with the goal of finding safer and better pediatric cancer treatments and improving the survival rate across the board.

LLS’s nationwide chapters organize numerous events, including the Man and Woman of the Year Campaign, across the U.S. every year.
