Sarah Varghese | Team Survivors for a Cure

Sarah's Students of the Year Fundraiser

Jan 25, 2022

 

                                                              

My name is Sarah Varghese! I joined LLS as a Team Member of the Student Of The Year Campaign. After hearing about this campaign, I decided to join because cancer is a huge issue and has touched so many people, it has taken so many of our loved ones. I am working to raise as much as possible over the next 7 weeks. 

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 cancer patients.
 
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 please 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

    I am so glad that you are investing your time in this good cause. May your efforts be successful. Hope everyone realizes that we can not take anything for granted- ever. We have to be thankful for our blessings and we must share these blessings with people who may not be as fortunate at all times. Good luck! Riyana (4th grade)
