In 2023 we climb in honor of Malachi Cota, and in memory of Firefighter Lt. Luis “Louie” Batayola.
Every year we share the stories of blood cancer patients, survivors and those who we have tragically lost. It is an unfortunate truth that it can be difficult to come across someone whose life has not been impacted by some form of cancer. For those who do not have a personal blood cancer connection, we hope these inspiring individuals can help provide humanity and perspective to this terrible disease. The money raised through the LLS Firefighter Stairclimb is dedicated in spirit to those in the fire family like Malachi Cota and Lt. Luis Batayola, who have shown us what it really means to climb, conquer, and move toward a cure.
