Hanna Olivas
Brave & Beautiful Blood Cancer Foundation
Founder
Hanna Olivas is the founder of a local Las Vegas charity, the Brave & Beautiful Blood Cancer Foundation. Her journey started in 2017 when she was first diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma. She was given a 5-year prognosis and was told her cancer is incurable. To continue treatment, Hanna was forced to seek help outside of Nevada. With the frustration of being outsourced, Hanna realized what she had to do to make a change for other Nevadans and along with this inspiration, founded the Brave & Beautiful Blood Cancer Foundation.
