Cancer is one of the leading causes of death around the world with hundreds of thousands of people losing their lives each year.  Over the last few years, close family members and friends of ours have been diagnosed with cancer.   We are thankful that they are all still with us, but many families across the world have lost people close and dear to them.  Unfortunately, there are many families that are unable to afford treatment for themselves or loved ones.  This is where WE (you and me) can help.  The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society has helped more than 55,000 patients afford treatment, invested nearly $1.3 billion in cancer research, and funded approximately 300 active LLS research projects and with your help, we can do so much more!

Join the fight against cancer to help put an end to this terrible monster. 

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!
