Student Visionaries of the Year Greater Los Angeles

Frances AbuShanab | Team Journey to a Cure

Frances's Student Visionaries of the Year Greater Los Angeles Fundraiser

Feb 12, 2023

Visionaries look to the future—and see infinite possibilities.
 

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was built on that same vision - of a better world - one without blood cancers.

 

Many of you remember when I led a team for my own campaign in 2021, raising over $120,000.  Many gave generously to the campaign as you tried to navigate life in a pandemic.  My involvement with LLS did stop there, and The Mighty Shrimp generated four legacy teams that raised over $500,000 in 2022. I became aware of another student at my school who had been diagnosed with ALL (just like me) at the age of three (just like me) and nominated her to the 2023 Student Visionaries of the Year.  Bailey accepted, and I'm proud to be a part of her team to continue on the legacy of the Mighty Shrimps and raise funds for LLS.  

 

As a global leader in the fight against blood cancer, LLS:

  • Funds cutting-edge research leading to breakthroughs in immunotherapy, genomics and personalized medicine that are improving and saving the lives of patients
  • Provides free education and support for blood cancer patients and families, including personalized, one-on-one support, assistance with identifying and enrolling in clinical trials, and more.
  • Mobilizes thousands of advocates to drive policy changes that accelerate the development of new cancer treatments and break down barriers to care.

Please consider joining this fight by making a donation. All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!

 

Thanks to your support, my efforts will help ensure this generation is the last to see cancer.

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you!
