Valeska's Students of the Year Fundraiser

Jan 26, 2021

Thank you for visiting Team The Lions fundraising page, welcome!

I encourage you to join me in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to my 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. 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 for 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 visit my website as often as you can and share it 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.

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

    In memory of my first counselor, confidant, comforter, cheerleader, educator, helper, friend, best listener...staunch defender, advocate, encourager, confidence builder, influencer and more. Daddy you were the Epitome of Rugged Individualism, Quintessential Renaissance Man and the portrait of a True Icon. A Pioneer, Pacesetter, Dreamer, a Multifarious, Magnanimous Manifestor. You were the personification of a Fearless Leader, Warrior, Lion with a heart of gold. Your charity began at home, you put your family first and showered us with your love, time, resources and affection. Daddy, it never went unnoticed or unappreciated. I was inspired by you, I aspire to be you: kind, generous, a wealth of uncommon knowledge, an overflowing fount of wisdom. Your brilliance, inimitable wit, keen broad mind, and passion for life molded us. To me, you were, you are, and you will forever be everything. To my Charismatic and Enigmatic Father. A man of Extraordinary Accomplishments: A Legend.
