LLS Big Climb 2024 |
When I was one- year old, my mom was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Luckily she is a survivor! Ever since, I have participated in Light the Night (and last year the Big Climb at Citi Field) with my family where we raise money to fight blood cancers. This year, I’m proud to be a candidate and leading a team for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign, working to raise as much as possible for LLS’s mission to cure blood cancers. Please help me knock out cancer!
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
- Mobilizes thousands of advocates to drive policy changes that accelerate the development of new cancer treatments and break down barriers to care.
- 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. Patient support is what I am focusing my fundraising on. My mom had the support of parents, friends and doctors. Not everyone is as lucky. LLS is needed so that no one has to face cancer alone.
I want to support LLS because my family and I are so thankful for my mom’s survival. I want to honor my mom, and the others we know who have survived, are fighting, or who have lost their lives to blood cancer or other cancers.
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. LET'S KNOCK OUT CANCER!
On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, and my family, thank you!
