Welcome to Leila Wass' SOY Fundraising Page!

Welcome to my fundraising page!

My name is Leila Wass, and I am excited to be participating as a team member of the NCS/STA Team Close Cares in this year's LLS Student of the Year campaign! Please join me in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to my team's fundraising campaign. Thanks to your support, my efforts will help fund therapies and treatments and help save lives today!

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. These therapies are 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!

I believe this is an incredibly worthwhile cause to dedicate time and resources to, and I hope you do as well. All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. They will support not only LLS research but also patient services, advocacy, public & professional education, and community services.

Please visit my web site often and share this link with friends who would also like to donate!

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