I joined LLS because my grandmother passed away 11 years ago from leukemia. Before she passed away, she participated in trials to help find a cure for her condition and that was a huge inspiration for me to pursue this.  

I also got involved because every 3 minutes another person is diagnosed with a blood cancer. Unfortunately 33% don’t survive 5 years after their diagnosis. This needs to change. That’s why I’m working with LLS to help find a cure!   

Here is how you can be part of the cure… 

I am competing with several other Student Visionaries of the Year candidates in Illinois and together we will each put our best fundraising foot forward in honor of all those fighting blood cancer. I am asking you today to join me in this ambitious campaign. I have until March 18, 2023 to reach my goal of raising $25,000. 

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.

I am a visionary; I have a vision for a world without cancer, but I need your help.

This year, I’m proud to be a part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign, working to raise as much as possible for LLS’s mission.

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

• 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.
