Please join me in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to my fundraising campaign for The 2020 Mr. Marina Compeition.
I have decided to spearhead a fundraising campaign on behalf of an organization driven to find cures for blood cancer. My campaign team is working to raise as much as possible over the next 8 weeks. Every dollar we raise will get me one step closer, since fundraising success is the most heavily weighed piece of The Mr. Marina Competition. This year I'll be joining a legacy of 70 contestants before me, and this year the event is aiming to cross the milestone threshold of over $1M raised for LLS.
As you know, everyone wins when cancer loses. Thanks to your support, my efforts will help fund therapies and treatments that are saving lives. Over the years, support from people like you has been responsible for the blood cancer advancements that have doubled, tripled, and in some cases quadrupled the survival rate for some blood cancers.
Many LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients, but are also now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers and are in clinical trials for patients with lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers. And LLS funded drugs like targeted therapies and immunotherapies are now saving thousands of lives every day. We really are getting close to our goal of a world without blood cancers!
All donations are greatly appreciated and tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS research, but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well. On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you for your support!
