Lehigh Valley Students of the Year 2018

Welcome to Team Easton's SOY Fundraising Page!

Welcome To Our Fundraising Page.

Please join us in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. Thanks to your support, our efforts, will help fund the therapies and treatments and help save lives today.

Our names are Sarah Miller and Charlize Smith, together we are representing Easton Area High School. We are both heavily involved in our community and love to give back. Together, our goal is to raise 20,000 dollars. But we need your support!

Our honored hero this year is Leah Mirth from Parkand High School. She was diagnosed with Leukemia at the age of four, but is now a thriving senior in high school. Leah is now 11 years free of cancer and plans to become a social worker. She is a dedicated runner at her school and loves to have fun with friends. Leah did not let her past illnesses define her.

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!

All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS research but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well.

Please visit our Web site often and bring friends who would also like to donate!

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere wethank you for your support!

    My mom is my hero. She has fought and won against breast cancer twice and is now battling Stage 3 colon cancer. I pray for the day scientists find a vaccine against this horrible disease.
