Thank you so much for supporting my Students of the Year Campaign! 

My name is Charlotte Kornegay, and I am a high school junior who is running for this year's Student of the Year. I have signed up to save lives with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) and am working to raise as much as possible over the next 7 weeks. Every dollar raised counts as one vote for my campaign. The candidate(s) whose team tallies the most votes earns the prestigious title of Student or Students of the Year. Will you help me earn that title?

I am running in honor of my grandmother, "Grandma E," (pictured below) who passed away from Leukemia in December of 2013. Although I was only eight years old at the time of her passing, she had such an impact on my life up to that point, and I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to spend those eight years with her. 

As you know, everyone wins when cancer loses. Thanks to your support, my efforts will help fund therapies and treatments that are saving lives. Over the years, support from people like you has been responsible for the blood cancer advancements that have doubled, tripled, and in some cases quadrupled the survival rate for some blood cancers. Many LLS-supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are also now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers and are in clinical trials for patients with lung, brain, breast, pancreatic, and prostate cancers. And LLS-funded drugs like targeted therapies and immunotherapies are now saving thousands of lives every day.

I have assembled Team E’s Angels to help me raise funds. I am proud to lead my campaign team and work towards our goal to raise at least $75,000 during the next 7 weeks - January 13-March 5, 2022.  
 
We really are getting close to our goal of a world without blood cancers!
 
All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. They'll not only support LLS research, but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well.
 
Please visit my website often and tell your friends who would also like to donate!
 
On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you for your support! For more information about LLS, please visit www.lls.org

For a cure, 

Charlotte Kornegay :)
