Juliana's Students of the Year Fundraiser

I recognize that defeating all types of cancer is a huge task- and not achievable at once. The Leukemia and Lymphoma society greatly contributes towards research, which not only benefits these two diseases, but all cancers as a common enemy. My father had a brother who passed away of Leukemia at a young age. His name was John Bradford Upp, and he went by “Brad”. Brad was a smart and kind young boy with a love for lions. His death was a devastating loss for my grandparents, and I’d like to help work towards ensuring that no parent is forced to experience loss like that. I invite others to honor Brad or others in their lives who have been affected by any type of cancer by supporting LLS.

Welcome To My Fundraising Page.

Please join me in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. Thanks to your support, my efforts, will help fund the therapies and treatments and help save lives today.

LLS's continued advancements over the years, are responsible for the blood cancer survival rate doubling and tripling; in some cases, the survival rate has even quadrupled.

And many LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers. They're even being tested in clinical trials for patients with a range of cancers including lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers. LLS funded drugs are now being tested for patients with other non-cancerous diseases like Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Multiple Sclerosis.

We really are changing the face of blood cancer!

All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS research but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well.

Please visit my Web site often and bring friends who would also like to donate!

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere I thank you for your support!
