The AEP Texas Foundation provided a $10,000 grant to Blood Cancer United via the Student Visionaries of the Year program, which empowers high school leaders to raise funds and awareness for blood cancer research and patient support. The donation was coordinated through collaboration between AEP Texas External Affairs Manager Jimmy Earnest and Campaign Development Manager Jessica Piña, with student advocate Andrea Mae playing a central role in advancing the campaign’s goals.

This gift strengthens ongoing research, expands patient support services, and raises public awareness, while also reinforcing the foundation’s commitment to community partnerships and investing in the next generation of civic leaders.
