Misha Aggarwal's Student Visionaries of the Year Northern Virginia Fundraiser
Me in a Nutshell
Hi everyone! My name is Misha Aggarwal and I am junior at Freedom High School and the Academies of Loudoun. Baking, travelling, reading, and binge-watching random shows on Netflix are a few of my passions. Along with being a sleeping enthusiast of course! Also, I enjoy working hard for causes I am particularly fond on such as individual rights and gender equality. I am incredibly excited to be apart of this campaign because I have a vision for a world without cancer, but I need your help in order to fulfill it.
Why donate to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society?
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 understand the difficulties cancer can bring upon a person and their family first hand. My loved ones have been lost due to cancer, and I hope you will work with me to prevent future pain from occuring and ensure patients the best health care possible. This year, I am proud to be a part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign, working to make an impact in LLS's ground breaking cancer research.
LLS helps:
- 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. Every dollar counts! All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. Please visit my website often and spread the word to family, friends, and colleagues!
$50 helps fund educational handbooks for cancer patients and medical staff
$100 helps fund peer support programs that benefits patients and their families
$200 helps fund lab supplies in which researchers use to conduct cutting-edge blood cancer work
$500 helps pay for the cost of non-medical expenses for the patient and caregiver; includes transportation, housing, utilities, food, and clothing
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!
