Featured in the top two photos is my Auntie Meggan, my "why" behind my participation in LLS. The bottom photo shows me and my two co-leaders, Kendal and Kenadi. We work together to manage our fantastic team of 20!

I am excited to be leading a team of teenagers dedicated to fundraising on behalf of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). Our goal is to raise as much money as possible over the next seven weeks.

I have taken on this challenge in memory of my Aunt Meggan, who passed away from brain cancer in 2019. Blood cancer research not only helps blood cancer patients but also supports research for cures of all cancers. And LLS-funded drugs like targeted therapies and immunotherapies are now saving thousands of lives every day. My goal is to help erradicate all types of cancers so that others do not lose their loved ones, like I lost my Aunt Meggan. 
 
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 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 consider making a stretch donation to help combat cancer and help meet my personal goal of raising $10,000 and my team's goal of raising $200,000. 
 
Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!
