My name is Andrea Dinglasan and my purpose is to raise money for cancer research. Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) has made an immense impact on blood cancer research, and I want to further that influence. The more support given to research, the closer we get to better countermeasures against cancer. 

I am a student at Xavier College Prepratory and our mission is to "meet the challenges of a changing global society in a positive and productive manner." As a Xavier student, it is my duty to accomplish this through LLS and our goal of $50,000.

I have signed up to save lives with the LLS and am working to raise as much as possible over the next 7 weeks. Every dollar raised counts as one vote for my campaign. The candidate(s) whose team tallies the most votes earns the prestigious title of Student or Students of the Year. Will you help me earn that title?
 
As you know, everyone wins when cancer loses. Thanks to your support, my efforts will help fund therapies and treatments that are saving lives. Over the years, support from people like you has been responsible for the blood cancer advancements that have doubled, tripled, and in some cases quadrupled the survival rate for some blood cancers.
 
Many LLS-supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are also now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers and are in clinical trials for patients with lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers. And LLS-funded drugs like targeted therapies and immunotherapies are now saving thousands of lives every day.
 
We really are getting close to our goal of a world without blood cancers!
 
All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. They'll not only support LLS research, but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well. EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS! 
 
Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!
