"To bring about change, you must not be afraid to take the first step. We will fail when we fail to try." — Rosa Parks

Approximately, every 3 minutes, someone in the United States is diagnosed with a blood cancer. Approximately, every 9 minutes, someone dies from. blood cancer. These statistics are devestating. The majority of people in the US are affected by cancer in one way or another. This is my WHY. The effects of blood cancer are devestating and no one should have to go through the process of living with it. 

This year, I am a Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign Team Member, working to raise as much as possible for LLS’s mission. My goal is to raise $5000 for this fight. This is a big goal and I won't be able to do it wthout you. Any donation you can spare from $1 to $1000, will make a huge difference in the fight against cancer.

Your donation is helping millions of patients and their families touched by cancer. I thank you for your contributions.
