About (Summary)

My name is Henry DiClementi and I am a student at grand valley state University. I grew up in a suburb of Chicago and have always loved the state of Michigan which is how I found my way to Grand Valley. During my first year at GV I joined Colleges Against Cancer and was a committee member for relay for life. I was passionate about this club because of my battle with cancer, during my first few years of high school, and this club really brought the best out of that situation that I was fortunate enough to come out of. Colleges Against Cancer has introduced me to so many great people and it really got me involved at Grand Valley.
