Student Visionaries of the Year Washington DC

Katherine Ellis | Team Gators Beat Blood Cancer

Katherine's Student Visionaries of the Year Washington DC Fundraiser

Jan 22, 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 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.

Dear Family and Friends,

My name is Katherine Ellis, I am a freshman at Stone Ridge School of the Sacred Heart and I am happy to be a part of team Gators Beat Blood Cancer. I am honored to be participating in the Leukemia Lymphoma Society's 2024 Student Visionaries of the Year campaign. From January 13th - March 2nd, I will be competing against students from across the country to see who can raise the most funds and awareness for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS) and their mission: to find a cure for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease, and myeloma, and to improve the quality of life of patients and their families. My goal for this campaign is to raise $5,000 and can't do it on my own! Any donation, big or small, is greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. By donating to LLS, you are not only helping me reach my goal, but you are also helping fund cutting-edge research to help find a cure. 

Feel free to share my page with everyone you know who would also like to join us in the fight against cancer. If you have any questions about LLS in general or want to hear more about it, feel free to contact me.

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!

Katherine Ellis
