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.

 

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. I decided to join to help support LLS’s work and the people that this amazing organization stands for. Last summer, I had the opportunity to volunteer at a local hospital, the Alamance Regional Medical Center, where I spent 7 weeks assisting the medical team with patient care in the emergency department. Beyond showing me a glimpse at the inner workings of a hospital, what I valued most about this experience was how it brought me closer to patients and the challenges that they face. While huge progress we have made in lifesaving treatments and patient care, there is immense potential that is yet to be achieved. I have been inspired to take on this challenge to support an organization that can create positive change for all these patients. 

 

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!

 

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!
