Our Campaign
Hello and welcome to our fundraising page! We appreciate you stopping by and taking a look at what we are working on. To start, we joined the Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign, a fundraising effort that empowers highschool students to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, because of our aunt Jill. Jill was diagnosed with Nodular Sclerosis Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma twice in her 20s. Thankfully with the help of LLS she beat cancer both times and recovered. Sadly, she has dealt with the side effects of radiation and heart problems for the past 30 years. All hope is not lost though, as on January 28, our team is set to try and raise our goal of $50,000. We know this is a lot but we are putting in the time and effort to accomplish our goal. Our mission is to make sure no one has to experience all the hardships and side effects she has dealt with. We want to support patients and there families all throughout their fight with blood cancer and make sure all they have to do is focus on what’s important. Whether that means covering treatment costs, access to mental health or care after remission, we are willing to do whatever it takes and I hope you’ll join me in our fight! Keep checking back in for more information!
Sincerly,
Owen & Rui

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:
- 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!
