Avery's Students of the Year Fundraiser

Jan 06, 2022

I have signed up to save lives with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (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!
 
On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you for your support! For more information about LLS, please visit www.lls.org

    Avery—my beloved father died of lymphoma almost 25 years ago, still a young man. He will never know three of his grandchildren. The rare lymphoma he had was called Waldenstrom’s syndrome. Ironically, my dad was the chief of hematology at one of Harvard’s teaching hospitals, and had worked with Dr. Waldenstrom during his training. Thanks for your efforts.

    Great work Avery! This is a cause very near & dear to our hearts. Your Papa has produced multiple "Stand Up to Cancer" live television shows & I will never forget the host asking everyone to "STAND UP" if they have lost a family member or loved one from Cancer. The entire audience stood up & it was such an emotional moment with many, many tears. Research is definitely the key & great strides are being made, but we can not settle until we have a cure! Thank you Avery Cate for your hard work on this Papa & Teresa
