Thank you for visiting my fundraising page, welcome!

I am honored to be a part of Kenley McClure and Lawyer LaMay’s Team Bleeding Hope and their goal to raise money during this year’s Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Student of the Year campaign.  The reason I decided to get involved is simple...cancer touches us all.  We have all had a friend, relative or co-worker feel the profound pain caused by a cancer diagnosis.  In fact, this year one of my best friends has fought his own battle.  Seeing this close up made me realize the importance of trying to eradicate cancer forever.  It is my hope that Kenley and Lawyer’s generation will be the last to even know the word cancer. With the help of LLS and their fund-raising efforts, I believe this is achievable.  So far LLS has funded 58 of the 68 FDA approved treatments since 2017.  With more funding comes more treatment.  Let’s beat cancer...once and for all.

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.

As a global leader in the fight to end cancer, LLS is committed to doing more for blood cancer patients and families than any organization in the world. LLS’s signature fundraising campaigns drive critical support for its mission, including a nearly $1.3 billion investment in cutting edge cancer research worldwide since it was founded in 1949. Since the 1960s, survival rates for many blood cancer patients have doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled.

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.

Please visit my website as often as you can and share it with everyone you know who would also like to join us in the fight against cancer. 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 everywhere, I sincerely thank you for your support!

    My husband, Dennis, was diagnosed with B-Cell Lymphoma three years ago. With dignity and fortitude, he fights daily against the ravages of this disease. He is a cancer warrior as he volunteers to help others by participating in Lymphoma-specific clinical trials at Duke Medicine. It is my hope that this donation helps in finding a cure for Dennis and all others fighting for their lives and longing for a day without cancer.
