Kristy Kocot | Team Titans 4 a Cure 2.0
Welcome to Kristy Kocot's 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. I am raising funds in honor of my uncle, Tom Kocot, who passed away in 2002 after a hard battle with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL). My Uncle Tom fought hard against the disease, but he never really had a chance. I want to raise funds for therapies and treatments for blood cancers like ALL, so that others may survive and not have to suffer like my Uncle Tom.
LLS's continued advancements over the years, are responsible for the blood cancer survival rate doubling and tripling; in some cases, the survival rate has even quadrupled.
And 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 blood 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 blood cancer patients everywhere I thank you for your support!
