Hi! My name is Diya Baxi and I am a member of Team Cancel Cancer! I currently attend Atholton High School as senior, I am the Vice President of the Nation Art Honors Society, a member of Be The Change, and Student Government! Some of my interests include computer science, graphic design and any type of art! 

I decided to fundraise for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and take this opportunity to help cancer patients and their families that are affected. I've seen many of my relatives battle with cancer and seen how traumatic it can be for families to face. LLS has given me a chance to be able to contribute to helping support cancer patients, through raising funds for cancer research and treatment.

Visionaries look to the future—and see infinite possibility.
They challenge the status quo—and make the impossible possible.
They boldly imagine a better world – and lead the charge to create it.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was built on that same vision - of a better world - one without blood cancers.

I am a visionary; I have a vision for a world without cancer, but I need your help.

This year, I’m proud to be a part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign, working to raise as much as possible for LLS’s mission.

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
• 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.
• Mobilizes thousands of advocates to drive policy changes that accelerate the development of new cancer treatments and break down barriers to care.

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.

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you!
