Ryan Pratt | Cancer Wrecking Crew

Ryan's Fundraising - In Honor of My Sister

Jan 14, 2023

I am fundraising as part of the Cancer Wrecking Crew in honor of my best friend and big sister Sam Pratt who is a Leukemia survivor. She was only 3 when she was diagnosed and I was 18 months old. I do not remember those days but I cannot imagine my life without Sam. My hope is that in the near future no one loses a loved one to cancer. Our family was lucky and we want everyone to have the same chance at life.

 

Ryan's Student Visionaries of the Year Maryland Fundraiser

Nov 17, 2022

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!
