The Genentech team came together at The Graduate in Annapolis to celebrate Chase and send him off in style before his upcoming wish trip. The gathering featured a fishing-themed trivia game that had everyone laughing and learning, with Chase and his parents joining in the fun. The team surprised Chase with thoughtful gifts including fishing gear, a backpack, and, of course, plenty of Swedish Fish to sweeten the occasion.

During the party, Chase bravely shared his journey with leukemia, reflecting on his treatment and resilience. Now a rising senior in high school, he’s eagerly looking ahead to his wish: an unforgettable fishing adventure in the Florida Keys. The event was a meaningful and joy-filled sendoff, highlighting the power of community, support, and the simple joy of looking forward to brighter days ahead.
