Team Panthers Cure Cancer's Student Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser

Feb 04, 2025

 

Visionaries look to the future—and see infinite possibility.
They challenge the status quo—and make the impossible possible.
They boldly imagine a better world – and lead the charge to create it.

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

We are visionaries; We have a vision for a world without cancer, but we need your help.

 

We are Ava, Elle & Natalie, juniors at San Joaquin Memorial High School and we are proud to be leading the legacy Panthers Cure Cancer team as part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign. We are working hard to raise as much as possible for LLS’s mission.

Over 1.6 million people in the US are living with or in remission from leukemia, lymphoma, or other types of blood cancers -- 55,000 of these people are kids. It's not surprising that every family we know has been impacted by cancer. It takes a toll physically, emotionally, and financially. We all have our reasons for wanting to help and together we know that we can make a difference. 

We support LLS because they make a real impact. 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. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference and brings us closer to finding a cure for cancer. Please visit our website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!

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

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, we thank you!

Ava, Elle, & Natalie
