#17 - Brianna Haag and Mr. Marina are Fighting Cancer

Brianna Haag is the founder of The Mr. Marina Competition and she does it all in the name of charity. In 2008, Brianna found out her Dad had been diagnosed with leukemia. She made the decision to do something about it. Brianna connected with the local chapter of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) and started fundraising for them. She was extremely successful and was nominated for the San Francisco Woman of the Year award in 2012. As part of this award nomination, Brianna launched a 10-week fundraising campaign that included the Mr. Marina Competition. The event was a huge success and ultimately led to Brianna winning the award for Woman of the Year. She has put on a Mr. Marina Competition every year since and raised over $500,000 for the LLS. We talk about some of the funniest moments from all the competitions and I try to find out more about one of her guest judges, Marina Girl Says. Brianna lives in the "Russian Hill side of Cow Hollow". We talk about her favorite spots in the hood and throughout San Francisco.
