Please note that the content below reflects a draft version of this fundraiser.

BE A PART OF OUR 2018 STUDENTS OF THE YEAR CAMPAIGN!

Please join us in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society(LLS) of Lehigh Valley's 2018 Students of the Year Campaign by making a donation. Your support will help fund the therapies and treatments and help save lives today.

The Students of the Year Campaign is a seven-week initiative in which nominated High School students participate in a fundraising competition to benefit The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Eastern PA Chapter.  Candidates will raise money in honor of patient heros who are currently battling or in remission from a blood cancer.  The candidate who raises the most money at the end of the seven weeks is named "Student(s) of the Year".  The campaign will launch on January 21, 2018 and the amounts raised are TOP SECRET and will culminate with a Grand Finale on March 10, 2018  where the winner and the final amount will be announced.  The Student(s) of the Year will receive a $2,500 scholarship to a college or university of his/her choice.  In addition, one student will be awarded a Citizenship award for the Mission and will receive a $1,000 scholarship.

LLS's continued advancements over the years, are responsible for the blood cancer survival rate doubling and tripling; in some cases, the survival rate has even quadrupled. And many LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers. They're even being tested in clinical trials for patients with a range of cancers including lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers. LLS funded drugs are now being tested for patients with other non-cancerous diseases like Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Multiple Sclerosis.

We really are changing the face of blood cancer!
