Thank you for visiting my fundraising page, welcome!

My name is Cali Jane Luetkemeier and am lucky enough to be nominated to be the Academy of the Sacred Heart candidate for the 2021 Student of the Year Campaign for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society is an organization dedicated to saving the lives of blood cancer patients, specifically patients with cancers such as Leukemia, Lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, and Myeloma. Through this campaign, our goal is to raise money for research and cures for children diagnosed with blood cancers, but also to be able to improve the patient’s and their family’s quality of life. I could not be more excited to be able to help children and patients throughout the country be able to live another day. I am proud to lead my team, “Cardinals Cure Cancer,” and work towards our goal to raise $30,000 during the next 7 weeks, from February 28th to April 18th, 2021. 

I encourage you to join me in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. By donating to LLS, you support the many facets of LLS’s mission work from investing in groundbreaking research, providing education and support to patients, and advocating at the state and federal level for legislation to help those living with cancer. My appreciation for your support cannot be overstated — each and every dollar donated to LLS brings us closer to our goal to end blood cancer and makes an impact for cancer patients and their families.

Leukemia causes more deaths than any other type of cancer among children under the age of 20. This abominable disease completely alters a child's life and while a child may be cured, their lives will forever be different due to cancer. Donating to my campaign presents an opportunity to help support the life-saving work of LLS in fighting these diseases and I appreciate your contribution as we fight for a cure. Every facet of LLS’s mission – research, education and support, and policy and advocacy – work in harmony to put blood cancer patients and their families first. LLS has helped millions impacted by cancer throughout its more than 70-year history, even funding breakthrough blood cancer research to advance lifesaving treatments and cures that is now helping patients with other cancers and diseases. That is why at LLS we say that beating cancer is in our blood.

Together, we have the power, the passion and the resolve to achieve a world without blood cancer. All donations are tax-deductible.

On behalf of cancer patients and their families, my team, and the community of people working to support LLS everywhere, I sincerely thank you for your support!
