My name is Abby Felsenthal.  Thank you so much for visiting my fundraising page.  I am so excited to be a part of the Students of the Year Team - Team Raise Hope Together - to raise money for cancer research.  When you donate to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), you are saving lives.  I'm doing this for my grandmother who survived Breast Cancer, my aunt who survived Thyroid Cancer and other members of my family. Everyone knows someone whose lives are touched by cancer.  Let's work together to raise important research money that will go toward curing blood cancers.

I have signed up to save lives with LLS and am working to raise as much as possible over the next 7 weeks.  Every dollar raised counts as one vote for my campaign.  The candidate(s) whose team tallies the most votes earns the prestigious title of Student or Students of the Year.  Will you help me earn that title?
 
As you know, everyone wins when cancer loses. Thanks to your support, my efforts will help fund therapies and treatments that are saving lives. Over the years, support from people like you has been responsible for the blood cancer advancements that have doubled, tripled, and in some cases quadrupled the survival rate for some blood cancers.
 
Many LLS-supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are also now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers and are in clinical trials for patients with lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers. And LLS-funded drugs like targeted therapies and immunotherapies are now saving thousands of lives every day.
 
We really are getting close to our goal of a world without blood cancers!
 
All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. They'll not only support LLS research, but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well.
 
Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!
