Meet Adeline!

       

     

I've had the honor of knowing Adeline for roughly 10 years now. I met her at just 4 years old, and knew (like everyone else who's met Adeline knows), she was special. She has grown into such a strong, intelligent, driven, passionate, and inspiring young woman, it came as no surprise when I learned she was the first student of the year candidate to participate while going through active treatment. This is just one example of the kind of advocate Adeline is- someone who speaks up when others can't speak as loudly as she can. I am proud to know and love Adeline, and proud to be fundraising for LLS on her behalf. 

 

Jessie's Students of the Year Fundraiser

Oct 27, 2021

Welcome To My Fundraising Page.

I have signed up to save lives with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) and am working to raise as much as possible over the next 7 weeks. Every dollar raised counts as one vote for my campaign. The candidate(s) whose team tallies the most votes earns the prestigious title of Student or Students of the Year. Will you help me earn that title?
 
As you know, everyone wins when cancer loses. Thanks to your support, my efforts will help fund therapies and treatments that are saving lives. Over the years, support from people like you has been responsible for the blood cancer advancements that have doubled, tripled, and in some cases quadrupled the survival rate for some blood cancers.
 
Many LLS-supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are also now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers and are in clinical trials for patients with lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers. And LLS-funded drugs like targeted therapies and immunotherapies are now saving thousands of lives every day.
 
We really are getting close to our goal of a world without blood cancers!
 
All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. They'll not only support LLS research, but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well.
 
Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!
 
On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you for your support! For more information about LLS, please visit www.lls.org

    Jesse, thank you for championing this campaign for your friend. I am currently in treatment for both Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and Marginal-Zone B-Cell Lymphoma. Fortunately my treatments are recently developed targeted therapies, and not chemo, which are the types of advances that come through the help of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. I have known your Dad for decades and know that he is very proud of you for your role in this. Take Care, Fritz Stinson
