Hello!!!!

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page, I really appreciate any support you can give. My name is Ike Walker and I am a junior at Robinson Secondary School. I take part in numerous amount of activities such as football, wrestling, rugby, and Boyscouts (current Eagle Scout). This is my first year participating in the Leukemia Lymphoma Society's Student of the Year Campaign and more than excited to do so.

When asked why I want to find a cure for blood cancer, I have a lot of reasons, but I always go back to my dad. In 2007 my father was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, 5 months later he passed away. This year I am campaigning in memory of my dad Sam Walker and in honor of my uncle, Mike, who is currently undergoing treatment. Please join me and help Team Mike and Ike meet our goal of $25,000.

Did you know? LLS has funded 60 of the last 71 FDA approved treatments since 2017. By donating to LLS, you support the many facets of LLS’s mission work from investing in groundbreaking research, providing education and support to patients, and advocating at the state and federal level for legislation to help those living with cancer. My appreciation for your support cannot be overstated — each and every dollar donated to LLS brings us closer to our goal to end blood cancer and makes an impact on cancer patients and their families.

As a global leader in the fight to end cancer, LLS is committed to doing more for blood cancer patients and families than any organization in the world. LLS’s signature fundraising campaigns drive critical support for its mission, including a nearly $1.3 billion investment in cutting edge cancer research worldwide since it was founded in 1949. Since the 1960s, survival rates for many blood cancer patients have doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled.

Every facet of LLS’s mission – research, education and support, and policy and advocacy – work in harmony to put blood cancer patients and their families first. LLS has helped millions impacted by cancer throughout its more than 70-year history, even funding breakthrough blood cancer research to advance lifesaving treatments and cures that is now helping patients with other cancers and diseases. That is why at LLS we say that beating cancer is in our blood.

Please share my website with everyone you know who would also like to join us in the fight against cancer. Together, we have the power, the passion and the resolve to achieve a world without blood cancer. All donations are tax-deductible.
