After being coerced by Ed Levendusky and Sue Reinhardt, Brian dedicated 3 months of his life to run for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Man of the Year award.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Man & Woman of the Year (MWOY) campaign is a fundraising competition in communities across the U.S. in which participants vie for the title of Man or Woman of the Year. They raise funds for blood cancer research in honor of local children who are blood cancer survivors, the Boy & Girl of the Year. The titles are awarded to the men and women in each community who raise the most funds during the ten-week campaign; the top local fundraisers in the country also win the national titles. More information is available at www.mwoy.org
Brian used his charm, tenacity and fun loving personality to raise over $50,000 for this disease.
