Daisy Roldan, Senior Account Manager, knows firsthand the impact cancer can have on a community.

“My best friend's mother was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and passed away a year later,” Daisy shared. “I witnessed my friend’s emotional journey through her mother’s diagnosis and treatment—the highs, the lows, and ultimately, the heartbreak of losing her. That experience moved me profoundly and inspired me to take action.”

Daisy wanted to support organizations that are advancing treatments and cures, while also helping patients and families navigate their cancer journeys. She began raising awareness and supporting organizations like the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) through fundraising, advocacy, and volunteer work.

Her continued dedication earned her a regional 2025 Lockton Cares Community Impact Award. The Community Impact Awards honor Lockton Associates across the globe who go above and beyond to improve their communities through volunteering and philanthropy. Each recipient can direct a $25,000 donation to a charity of their choice, funded directly by the Lockton family.

“I was incredibly honored and humbled,” said Daisy. “It’s a privilege to be recognized, especially when it means being able to give back to a cause that means so much to me.”

The $25,000 donation will fund critical research, patient support services, and advocacy initiatives – contributing directly to improving treatment options and outcomes for those battling blood cancers.

“This award is a reflection of the collective efforts of everyone who has supported LLS alongside me,” she said. “It’s a testament to what we can achieve when we come together for a cause greater than ourselves.”

With the support of Lockton leadership and her colleagues, Daisy plans on expanding her personal impact with LLS to continue making a difference.

In fact, Daisy recently participated in The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Visionaries of the Year campaign, which raised over $250,000 to fund research, provide education and support, and drive policy change.

“I hope to expand my involvement by increasing fundraising efforts and helping LLS reach broader audiences. I’d also love to collaborate on initiatives that bring more awareness to early detection and treatment options.

Lockton’s culture of compassion and community has been instrumental. The support from Lockton has empowered me to pursue my passions and make a meaningful impact outside of work.”
