Student Visionaries of the Year Maryland
Claire Shultz | Team Best Bloods Crush Cancer 4.0
Claire's Student Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser
Thank you for checking out my fundraising page! I am so excited to share with you that I will be representing Notre Dame Preparatory as a candidate leading the Best Bloods Crush Cancer 4.0 team in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) 2025 Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign this February.
I decided to dedicate my time to LLS and SVOY for the second year to honor my uncle, who unfortunately passed away from leukemia in 2001 when he was just a college student. Additionally, I wish to build upon my success from last year, work even harder to fight blood cancers, and continue my family legacy of involvement with LLS that began when my uncle was diagnosed in 1997.
I want to create a change in this world, so my team's goal is to raise $150,000 for the cause, and I can’t do it alone. Donating is a perfect opportunity to help support my team's efforts and partner with this worthy cause. All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!
LLS is a global leader in the fight against blood cancer. The organization:
- 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.
Thank you for your support! My team's efforts will help ensure this generation is the last to see cancer.
On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you!
Claire
