It is incredible what this team of such young people has been able to accomplish and what we will do during the campaign! I am so excited and thankful to be on such a great team, and I am looking forward to an even better campaign!

I found out about LLS right before my junior year of high school and I was so lucky to be invited to such a great team! When I was told what LLS does and how I could help I was very excited to get to work, and that is because of how cancer has affected my family as well as my friends. I have lost loved ones and almost a friend to cancer, so being able to take part in an organization like LLS is very meaningful. I've seen the battle and helping raise funds for research and aid makes me feel like I am doing my part in helping the lives of others. If you are interested in LLS make sure to check out the great things they are doing and there is no better way to make a difference than to donate today!

While the Student of the Year campaign is a competition among teams to see who can raise the largest amount of money for the cause, the important thing to remember is that each dollar is making a difference in patient's lives! Blood cancer, like all cancers, is a battle, and every donation is a helping hand in another's battle. Donating to this organization is a simple way to make a big change in the patients lives as well as their families!

The Leukemia Lymphoma Society is a great organization that I am so honored to help make a change in the lives of cancer patients!

I am honored to participate as a team member for the 2020 Students of the Year program, a seven-week initiative in which select high school students from around the country participate in a fundraising competition to benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I am proud to support my candidate and am raising critical dollars in honor of a young patient hero who is currently battling or is in remission from a blood cancer. Each dollar is a vote. The candidate team that raises the most money at the end of the seven weeks is named Student of the Year. Our mission is to not only raise the most money but also to bring attention to blood cancers like leukemia, which is the most common form of cancer in children and teens.

Since the early 1960s, five-year survival rates for many blood cancer patients have doubled, tripled or even quadrupled. And many LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are helping patients with other cancers and serious diseases. In fact, drugs first approved for blood cancers are now approved to treat patients with stomach cancers, skin cancers, and autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis.

We really are changing the face of blood cancer!

All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS-funded research but will help provide critical information and support for patients, and support advocacy for laws to ensure patients can access the care and treatments they need.

Please visit our website often and bring friends who would also like to donate!

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you for your support!
