I am currently looking for partners who can contribute through sponsorships/donations, tribute books ads, in-kind donations, and more. Donations are tax deductible and businesses will get advertised.

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

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.

I decided to dedicate my time to LLS and SVOY because Leukemia is the most common cancer among children and teens under the age of 20, accounting for nearly one in three cancers. Although a significant portion of cancer patients are children and teens, research for youth cancer treatments is not profitable so there is very little research being done to find new treatments. LLS is working to fix this by funding research to help this cause and help many children that are struggling. Since its founding in 1949, LLS has contributed over $1.3 billion to the research of blood cancer; this research has a significant impact on not only this type of cancer but also those of the brain, breast, colon, prostate, pancreas, and skin.

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!
