Student Visionaries of the Year Maryland
Kira Babst | Team The Cancer Wrecking Crew
Kira's Student Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser
Visionaries look to the future—and see infinite possibilities.
They challenge the status quo—and make the impossible possible.
They boldly imagine a better world – and lead the charge to create it.
I am a visionary; I have a vision for a world without cancer, but I need your help. My mom, Amy Babst, was diagnosed with Stage 4 Hodgkin's Lymphoma while 38 weeks pregnant with me. Our story is my connection and motivation to not only raise money for LLS but also help families with similar stories to ours. We are forever grateful for the impact LLS had on my mom's life and by extension our lives. This campaign is a full-circle experience and an opportunity for me to work together with my mom to lead the charge to create change in our world.
This year, I’m so proud and blessed to be a part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign, working to raise as much as possible for LLS’s mission.
Please consider joining the fight by making a donation. All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. Please visit my fundraising page to check back on my progress and spread the word to anyone who would also like to donate!
For more information about LLS, you can visit www.lls.org.

Thank you, Kira and Amy, and all those who raise funds to help us find a cure for blood cancers. My son Patrick fought hard to beat leukemia for nearly 3 years, but God had other plans for him. I pray research finds cures for leukemia and all cancers so that parents don’t lose their children or watch them suffer as they fight for their lives. Stay strong and resilient, warriors! May God bless you!
