Welcome to Whitney D'Attilio's SOY Fundraising Page!

Welcome To My Fundraising Page.

I am honored to have been accepted as a candidate in the 2018 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 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 who raises the most money at the end of the seven weeks is named Student of the Year. My 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 I thank you for your support!

    Thank you so much for working for this amazing organization. My 80 year old Mom was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma in October of 2016. She successfully completed6 rounds of chemo therapy. Her last treatment was March 13, 2017. I am happy to report she is in remission and doing great! I know it was due to some of the work the LLS supports. I am also requesting that GSK match this $50 Donation (making it $100). Good luck, Whitney!!!

    Thank you, Whitney, for choosing the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to support for your fundraiser. Noah Walker's aunt, Rhonda Christensen, was diagnosed with leukemia seven years ago and received a life-saving bone marrow transplant from Elizabeth Jordan Truby. Aunt Rhonda is thriving today, thanks to the support from this organization: LLS

    My daughter, Paige, is a Leukemia survivor. She was 8 years old when she was diagnosed and went through almost 3 years of many different treatments including spinal, pills and IV. She missed all of 4th grade but we are lucky enough to say she is one of the 90%! We had some really tough days but now she is a healthy 14 year old. Although I donate annually to the LLS I couldn't resist to give a little more! Thank you Whitney on your efforts!
