What is a Student Visionary?
“Formerly the iconic Students of the Year campaign, Student Visionaries of the Year is a groundbreaking philanthropic leadership development program for high school students. Every year, courageous young leaders embark on an exciting 7-week journey with a goal to create a world without blood cancers, striving to earn the Student Visionary of the Year title.”
As a team, we are cultivating skills for fundraising, through learning how to pitch to large companies, interact with the community, and organizing!
