Student Visionaries of the Year Charlotte

Avery's Student Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser

Jan 25, 2024

Visionaries look to the future—and see infinite possibility.
They challenge the status quo—and make the impossible possible.
They boldly imagine a better world – and lead the charge to create it.

 

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

 

I am a visionary; I have a vision for a world without cancer, but I need your help.

When I was in elementary school, one of my childhood best friends, Sofia, was diagnosed with Leukemia. Although I wasn’t facing this personally, it was extremely difficult for me to see her go through. As an elementary school student, there is only so much you can do, but to be there every step of the way for your friend and her family. I was able to be with her as she fought to beat blood cancer. I always knew that there could be something I could do. I want to help fight for the cure of blood cancer and assist anyone facing the terrible effects. And now I am able to take on that challenge as a 2024 LLS Student Visionary of the Year Candidate. 
 

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.

 

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! My team and I (Team No One Fights Alone) has a goal to raise $250,000 in the efforts to cure blood cancer.

 

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!
