Student Visionaries of the Year Washington DC

Kyle's Student Visionaries of the Year Washington DC Fundraiser

Jan 12, 2024

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 Kyle, a visionary on behalf of my brother Max, who was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's B-Cell Lymphoma during the beggining of his senior year of highschool. He was just a normal kid living life to its fullest like you and I, until he was hit with this disease out of nowhere veering him and our family off course. With the help of our community we got back on track and Max beat his cancer. I am dedicating my time in this fundraiser to helping other kids like Max who have to deal with this terrible disease.

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!
