Welcome to Nicole Navya & Evan's SOY Fundraising Page!
Hey everyone!
Our names are Navya, Nicole, and Evan, and we're three juniors from Parkway Central High School. We're so excited for this campaign to kickoff, and we are passionate about making a difference in our community to benefit those affected by cancer.
All three of us have witnessed the effect that cancer has on its victims and their loved ones. We have lost family members and we want to do everything in our power to ensure a future where cancer is eradicated.
We are raising for Emma Pullman, our honored hero for this year. Emma is a hockey-loving tik-tok-dancing eleven-year-old who was diagnosed with Non-Hodgekins lymphoma. She has endured numerous treatments and surgeries, but has remained brave throughout her journey. We are raising money in honor of Emma and her family.
Every dollar counts, and we appreciate all donations! That you to everyone for helping us make a difference in our community.
Welcome to the Drops of Hope Fundraising Page!
We are honored to participate in the 2020 Students of the Year program, a seven-week initiative in which select high school students from around the country participate in a fundraising competition to benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. We are raising dollars in honor of a young patient herom Emma, who is currently battling blood cancer. She has endured countless surgeries and treatments at only eleven years old. Each dollar is a vote. The candidate team that raises the most money at the end of the seven weeks is named Student of the Year. Our mission is to not only raise the most money but also to bring attention to blood cancers like leukemia, which is the most common form of cancer in children and teens.
Since the early 1960s, five-year survival rates for many blood cancer patients have doubled, tripled or even quadrupled. And many LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are helping patients with other cancers and serious diseases. In fact, drugs first approved for blood cancers are now approved to treat patients with stomach cancers, skin cancers, and autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis.
We really are changing the face of blood cancer!
All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS-funded research but will help provide critical information and support for patients, and support advocacy for laws to ensure patients can access the care and treatments they need.
Please visit our website often and bring friends who would also like to donate!
On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you for your support!
