Samantha and Kate's Students of the Year Fundraiser

Jan 23, 2021

We are honored to be participating in The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) 2021 Students of the Year (SOY) campaign. The campaign is a seven-week initiative, starting January 23 and continuing through March 13, in which high school students from around the country are nominated to participate in a fundraising competition to benefit LLS’s mission: to find a cure for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and to improve the quality of life of patients and their families.

Please join us in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to our fundraising campaign. 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. Each and every dollar donated to LLS makes an impact on cancer patients and their families and brings us closer to our goal to end blood cancer.

We are very proud to be a part of the Gators Beat Blood Cancer team, working towards raising funds for LLS.  We are doing this for our dad, a 10-year survivor of Hodgkin's lymphoma, and the 1.3 million people who are living with or are in remission from Leukemia, Lymphoma, and Myeloma. Whether it is someone in your family or a friend, we know that many of you have a connection to cancer in some way. Together we can fight for those in our lives who have been affected by cancer and fund a cure. 

Please visit our website as often as you can and spread the word. Together, we have the power, the passion, and the resolve to achieve a world without blood cancer. We can't stop blood cancer without you. Join the fight! 

On behalf of cancer patients and their families everywhere, we sincerely thank you for your support!

With sincere gratitude,

Kate and Samantha Aronson
