Welcome to Emily Powers' SOY Fundraising Page!
Welcome To My Fundraising Page!
Please join me in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. Thanks to your support, my efforts will help fund the therapies and treatments and help save lives today.
Many of us, including myself, have been affected by some sort of cancer, whether it be with a family member or friend. From my experience, it is a very stressful and heart-wrenching situation to go through and I can't imagine what it's like for the victim suffering with the disease. This is why the fight against cancer is one that is very close to me, my teammates, and the LLS community.
Many LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers. They're even being tested in clinical trials for patients with a range of cancers including lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers. LLS-funded drugs are now being tested for patients with other non-cancerous diseases like Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Multiple Sclerosis.
We really are changing the face of all types of cancer!
All donations are greatly appreciated and are 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 Web site often and bring friends who would also like to donate!
On behalf of cancer patients everywhere I thank you for your support!
For more information about LLS, please visit lls.org
Thank you for your support!
