Zumbathon

 Each year, in communities across the country, dynamic, passionate candidates engage in a spirited 10-week fundraising competition to earn The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Man & Woman of the Year titles, by raising funds for blood cancer research. The candidates compete in honor of children who are local blood cancer survivors, the Boy & Girl of the Year.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Having been honored this year with the nomination for Man of the Year, Roger Royse is striving to raise an unprecedented amount of money to help find a cure for blood cancer. With the support of his campaign team, "Motion to Dismiss Cancer" and with the generosity of individuals like you, this goal is achievable.. A The Leukemia Lymphoma Motion motion to dismiss cancer team and the San Jose Fairmont have organized a two hour Zumba exercise class to raise money for LLS.
