Students of the Year Jacksonville
Clay Buchanan | Hometown Heroes
Welcome to Clay Buchanan's SOY Fundraising Page!
I am honored to participate as a candidate for 2020 Student of the Year, a seven-week initiative in which select high school students from around the country participate in a fundraising competition to benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I am proud raise critical dollars in honor of all the Hometown Heroes; our friends, family and neighbors that have bravely battled cancer.
Each dollar is a vote. The candidate team that raises the most money at the end of the seven weeks is named Student of the Year. My goal is to raise $50,000 for LLS's life-saving mission and to bring attention to blood cancers like leukemia, which is the most common form of cancer in children and teens.
Since the early 1960s, five-year survival rates for many blood cancer patients have doubled, tripled or even quadrupled. And many LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are helping patients with other cancers and serious diseases. In fact, drugs first approved for blood cancers are now approved to treat patients with stomach cancers, skin cancers, and autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis.
We really are changing the face of blood cancer!
All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS-funded research but will help provide critical information and support for patients, and support advocacy for laws to ensure patients can access the care and treatments they need.
Please visit our website often and bring friends who would also like to donate!
On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you for your support!
