Sophia's Students of the Year Fundraiser
Feb 16, 2021
My name is Sophia Henson, and I am 18 years old. At the beginning of quarantine (March 2020), a woman named Tia Bee Stokes kept popping up on my social media sites. She is a mom of five that was diagnosed with Leukemia that March. She also battled pneumonia, failing kidneys, and the coronavirus. I began following her on all her platforms because I was so inspired by the attitude she kept throughout her battle. I am running for Student of the Year because it gives me an opportunity to put this inspiration into something amazing.

Sophia, when I was a sophomore in college one of my best friends was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. We were young scared when she got the call in our dorm room that her biopsy showed cancer. LLS became an important part of my life as I rallied around my friend through her journey of treatments and change. Education and research are SO important! Your fundraising touches close to home, and know that you are making a big difference in the search for a cure to these terrible diseases! Keep it up 💪🏻
