My name is Logan Henderson and I am in 7th grade and for my year-end project, I am fundraising for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in honor of Mr. Todd Oakes who was the Minnesota Gophers Pitching Coach for past 18 years.  Sadly, Todd passed away on Thursday, May 26th after battling Acute Myeloid Leukemia with extreme courage for the past four years.  He is a role model to me because he made an incredible difference in the lives of so many people on and off the baseball fields and I want to try to make a difference in honor of him and for others who are fighting leukemia and lymphoma cancers.  At school, I am asking PRMS students to bring in quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies so together we can raise as much as we can for the LLS so they can do what they do best - help the children and adults that are fighting these types of cancers.  The coins collected at school, along with your online donation will add up to make a big difference!  Thank you for your support!

Welcome to Our Classroom's Fundraising Page

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

For over 65 years LLS has invested more than $1 billion to advance cancer therapies and save lives.

Last year alone LLS invested nearly $79.8 million in cutting-edge research. And many LLS-supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients, but are now used to treat patients with other forms of cancers as well.  Nearly 40% of new cancer therapies approved by the FDA between 2000 and 2014 were first approved for blood cancer patients.

We really are changing the face of blood cancer!

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

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

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