We are nearing the end of the campaign.  It's not too late.  Please consider a donation!  Any amount helps us move history and medicine one step closer to a cure and helps fund support and care along the way.  We are thankful for you.

 

Meet Adeline - our Honored Hero

Feb 21, 2023

Adeline is a Sophomore at Georgetown High School and is in the high school jazz band.  Adeline is currently in treatment for Leukemia and is our honored hero this year for Student Visionaries of the Year.  We were honored to meet her at the kick off event on January 6th and to also hear more about her story at our candidate workshop in the fall.  Adeline is a big source for inspiration in our campaign.

Our Why & Pillar of Support

Jan 27, 2023
 
 
We are excited about the Student Visionaries of the Year program and making a difference in the fight against cancer. We both have personal experiences with close family members suffering from cancer, and we know we can make a difference.
 
AIDAN: I have many connections to cancer through my family that motivate me to accomplish the mission of raising money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. When my cousin was just three years old, she was diagnosed with Leukemia and underwent treatment for three years. At that time, my family became involved in an organization called Texas 4000 for Cancer. I grew up attending Texas 4000 events and supporting cancer-related programs, and this remains an important part of our family's core values.
 
TANNER: We have chosen to highlight how LLS provides support to patients through their battle with blood cancers. The patient is priority. LLS Information Specialists responded to over 25,000 inquiries from patients and caregivers in the last year alone. They are working to bridge the disparities in care for minorities through a program called Myeloma Link, and LLS provided over $142 million in financial assistance to patients and caregivers in 2020.
