LLS Winter Cocktail!

Last night we also went to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Annual Winter Cocktail at Pepco Edison Place Gallery; Pepco is a major LLS donor. We snapped LLS team members PwC’s Saadiq Luqman, Grant Thornton’s Meg Nelbach and GSA’s Mike Effron, with author Benjamin Rubinstein.

Current and prospective LLS Man & Woman of the Year candidates met the Boy & Girl of the Year, inspirational blood cancer survivors, and heard from past winners. Here, LLS 2015 candidates Epic Consulting’s Theo Bell and Transwestern’s Scott Randolph with Amanda Holmes.

The Man & Woman of the Year campaign is a unique 10-week fundraising event for LLS’s mission to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s and myeloma. LLS has recruited 19 candidates this year, who will start April 2. Here, LLS co-chairs World Wide Technology's Kevin Pearson (2011 Man of the Year candidate) and DTZ's Amanda Tiede (2012 Woman of the Year).

Nikolas Namdar, LLS 2014 Woman of the Year Evelyn Smallwood, LLS 2015 candidate Presidential Detailing Auto Appearance’s Kevin Rohalmin and Department of Defense’s Arezo Alkabir.

Merjan Bubernack, Richelle Manansala and Alfredo Flores contributed to this issue.
