Hearts for's Students of the Year Fundraiser

Jan 21, 2021

Thank you for visiting out fundraising page, welcome!

We, Raeanna Byrnes, Lena Gereski and Lauren Baker are sophomores at Sacred Heart High school and would like to thank you in advance. By donating to LLS, you support the many facets of LLS’s mission work from investing in groundbreaking research, providing education and support to patients, and advocating at the state and federal level for legislation to help those living with cancer. Our appreciation for your support cannot be overstated — each and every dollar donated to LLS brings us closer to our goal to end blood cancer and makes an impact for cancer patients and their families.

As a global leader in the fight to end cancer, LLS is committed to doing more for blood cancer patients and families than any organization in the world. LLS’s signature fundraising campaigns drive critical support for its mission, including a nearly $1.3 billion investment in cutting edge cancer research worldwide since it was founded in 1949. Since the 1960s, survival rates for many blood cancer patients have doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled.

Every facet of LLS’s mission – research, education and support, and policy and advocacy – work in harmony to put blood cancer patients and their families first. LLS has helped millions impacted by cancer throughout its more than 70-year history, even funding breakthrough blood cancer research to advance lifesaving treatments and cures that is now helping patients with other cancers and diseases. That is why at LLS we say that beating cancer is in our blood.  We need your help to raise money and awareness especially during the pandemic as patients with blood cancers have a greater risk of experiencing a severe case of COVID-19. We hope that with your help, our team, Hearts for Hope, can meet our goal of $15,000.

On behalf of cancer patients and their families everywhere, We sincerely thank you for your support!

    Raeanna - what a great opportunity for you and you friends and what a great cause. When Mark and I got married instead of giving out wedding favors we used that money and donated to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. This organization was important to Mark since he lost both his father and brother to lymphoma. Best of luck! Janice
