Nora's Students of the Year Fundraiser
Welcome to my funtaising page!
My name is Nora Fotuhi and I am a junior at Langley High School in McLean. I have signed up to work with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) and help save lives of patients with cancer. My goal is to raise as much as funds as possible over the next 7 weeks. I encourage you to join me in supporting LLS by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. Every dollar donated goes towards supporting 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. I sincerely appreciate your support. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for every cent you donate.
As you know, everyone wins when cancer loses. Your support now 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.
Specific Connection
Unfrotunately, cancer has affectly my own family. My grandfather died of prostate cancer when I was only four years old. My grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 74 but, thankfully, she received prompt treatment and recovered fully. Her successful treatment was in part because of the donations that provide research and treatment for all of patients with cancer. I sincerely believe it is vital that we support cancer research so that we can save more lives! My grandparents are my personal inspirations as cancer impacted them and my family greatly. I aspire to raise awareness not just for them but for all the other families out there.
Conclusion
I am very passionate about participating in Leukemia and Lymphoma Society fund raising efforts and encourage you to make a contribution. Every donation means the world to me and can go towards saving hundreds and thousands of lives.
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.
