In Honor of.... EVAN MARRA

Mar 02, 2021

Hi everybody!!

Welcome to my 7 week journey to raise money for blood cancer research! I dedicate my project to my family friend, Evan Marra. 

 

I met Evan when he was only a few days old, his big sister, Eileen was already like (and still is) a little sister to me and I was so excited to get a new brother. I remember getting to hold him on my lap and let him grab onto my finger so tightly. 

 

It seems like only yesterday, but before my eyes he grew up into a toddler, little boy, and now a 10 year old! The days fly by and everyday Evan shows me how energetic and lovable he is. He and I used to play with my Japanese erasers for HOURS on end, because he loved taking them apart and putting them back together. I cherish those memories.

 

When he got diagnosed with AML, acute myeloid leukemia, which affects the myeloid which normally makes the white and red blood cells as well as the platelets. By affecting this area, his myeloblasts become abnormal and take up room so there is not enough room for the healthy blood cells, leaving his body vulnerable.

There was so much I wanted to do and help, but during a pandemic there is only so much. So I researched what AML was, so I could know what Evan was going through. He is so strong and his mom posted many wonderful updates so I could see him getting better. 

 

There are so many more I want to help, but I can’t do it all on my own, I need some help from all of you! By spreading the word, posting on social media, or donating towards the cause, we can reach LLS’s goal to be the generation to end cancer. 

 

Thank you for visiting my page! Please spread the word or donate towards the cause! 

 

If you have any questions, you can email me at swolfe21@lasallehs.org

 

 

Sofie's Fundraiser

Feb 25, 2021

Hi Family and Friends! 

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page, welcome!

I encourage you to join me in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. By donating to LLS, you support the many facets of LLS’s mission work from investing in groundbreaking research, providing education and support to patients, and advocating at the state and federal level for legislation to help those living with cancer. My appreciation for your support cannot be overstated — each and every dollar donated to LLS brings us closer to our goal to end blood cancer and makes an impact for cancer patients and their families.

As a global leader in the fight to end cancer, LLS is committed to doing more for blood cancer patients and families than any organization in the world. LLS’s signature fundraising campaigns drive critical support for its mission, including a nearly $1.3 billion investment in cutting edge cancer research worldwide since it was founded in 1949. Since the 1960s, survival rates for many blood cancer patients have doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled.

Every aspect of LLS’s mission – research, education and support, and policy and advocacy – work in harmony to put blood cancer patients and their families first. LLS has helped millions impacted by cancer throughout its more than 70-year history, even funding breakthrough blood cancer research to advance lifesaving treatments and cures that is now helping patients with other cancers and diseases. That is why at LLS we say that beating cancer is in our blood.

Please visit my website as often as you can and share it with everyone you know who would also like to join us in the fight against cancer. Together, we have the power, the passion and the resolve to achieve a world without blood cancer. All donations are tax-deductible.

On behalf of cancer patients and their families everywhere, I sincerely thank you for your support!
