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.

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.

On Christmas Eve of 2018, my 6 year old cousin Charlie Prince was diagnosed with blood cancer. My whole family went to visit Charlie at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta  and spent Christmas in the hospital with him. Charlie was diagnosed with Leukemia and had to undergo chemotherapy. Watching Charlie fight and be so brave throughout his whole experience was truly amazing as he is now cancer free! Although Charlie and his family are better now, it was a very hard thing to watch Charlie and his family go through. One day I began wondering why I was not helping. When I was asked to be a part of the Student Visionaries of the Year to help raise money for Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, I said yes in a heartbeat as I want to improve the lives of everyone with cancer but especially all the children with cancer! 

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!
