Hello Family and Friends! Thank you so much for visiting my page. I am currently a junior at Georgetown Visitation and am proud to represent my school as a candidate in the Leukemia Lymphoma Society's 2022 Student of the Year campaign. I am so excited to use my experience and skills to participate in team S.W.A.T. 6.0 (Students with a Target) and make an impact on the lives of those who are affected by blood cancers. I am personally fighting to find the cure in memory of Kelly Brodnik, who battled cancer for years until it ultimately took her life in 2018. Her inspiring memory lives on in the Visitation community, inspiring many to stand up and fight for the cause. With your help I can raise money for LLS, and help to find the cure! 

My team and I have been hard at work since September, and we are ready for all of the fun to begin! Our goal is to raise $90,000 for the cause and we need your help!

Emma's Student Visionaries of the Year Washington DC Fundraiser

Sep 20, 2022

Visionaries look to the future—and see infinite possibility.
They challenge the status quo—and make the impossible possible.
They boldly imagine a better world – and lead the charge to create it.

 

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was built on that same vision - of a better world - one without blood cancers.

 

I am a visionary; I have a vision for a world without cancer, but I need your help.

 

This year, I’m proud to be a part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign, working to raise as much as possible for LLS’s mission.

 

As a global leader in the fight against blood cancer, LLS:

  • Funds cutting-edge research leading to breakthroughs in immunotherapy, genomics and personalized medicine that are improving and saving the lives of patients
  • Provides free education and support for blood cancer patients and families, including personalized, one-on-one support, assistance with identifying and enrolling in clinical trials, and more.
  • Mobilizes thousands of advocates to drive policy changes that accelerate the development of new cancer treatments and break down barriers to care.

Please consider joining this fight by making a donation. All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!

 

Thanks to your support, my efforts will help ensure this generation is the last to see cancer.

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you!
