Students of the Year Columbus

Jimmy Sauder | Wolfpack (Hunting For A Cure)

Welcome to Jimmy Sauder's SOY Fundraising Page!

Jan 16, 2019

I am honored to participate in the 2019 Students of the Year program, a seven-week initiative in which select high school students from around the country participate in a fundraising competition to benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

I am participating in memory of my Grandmother, Suzanne Ritter, who recently passed away from myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society is funding the most promising research programs approved by the FDA. I believe that these programs will find a cure to cancer. These discoveries also help treat other cancers like breast cancer and skin cancer.

Our mission is to not only raise the most money but also to bring attention to blood cancers like leukemia, which is the most common form of cancer in children and teens.

All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS-funded research but will help provide critical information and support for patients, and support advocacy for laws to ensure patients can access the care and treatments they need. LLS also improves the standard of living for people currently suffering from blood cancer, as well as people who are in remission and their families.

Every 3 minutes someone is diagnosed with blood cancer. In their honor, in memory of my grandmother, and with hope for future survivors, thank you for your support!
