Students of the Year Wichita
Caroline Barber | Caroline Barber's Campaign Team
Welcome to Caroline Barber's SOY Fundraising Page!
Eisenhower Tigers Tervis Tumblers are SOLD OUT!!
Welcome to Caroline Barber's Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Students of the Year Fundraising Website! Each year LLS launches this fundraising campaign for students and I am so excited and honored to be nominated this year.
We have 7 weeks to raise funds for LLS! There are several ways YOU CAN HELP us reach our goal. Make a donation right here on this webpage, or support me at one of the events listed below. We are still looking for corporate sponsors to partner with me on my campaign. Please contact me at gtbarber@cox.net for more information on sponsorship benefits. Remember, ALL DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE!
If you are visiting this fundraising website, you probably already know my WHY for agreeing to compete in this fundraising campaign. In case you do not, this is a way for me (and my team) to honor the memory of a very special family friend, JC Delamore. JC fought an eleven year battle against leukemia with such strength and determination. Sadly, JC passed away on May 20, 2018. Raising money to help find a cure is imperative, as nearly all of us have been affected by someone who has battled a blood cancer. Will you please join us in raising money for a cure?
Current fundraisers:
