Our mission for this year is to help as much as we can to make treatment for cancer patients better. We also want to provide families of cancer patients with the support and care that they deserve. We want not only to raise money, and support the cause ourselves, but we also want to spread awareness and get other people involved in LLS. We want to spread awareness and show what an impact a community can have if we all come together. This is why we reached out to you. We would love for you to be our community, so that together we can make a difference.

We are doing this in honor of our team member Tatum O’Grady’s father, Tim O’Grady, who suffered through Leukemia. We have seen how it can affect a person and their family. We know how terrible cancer can be, and we want to do everything we can to make a difference. Our fundraising will help give families of cancer patients the encouragement they need to push through this hard time.

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.

I am a visionary; I have a vision for a world without cancer, but I need your help.

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.

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!
