Students of the Year Dallas

Will Rigby | Will Rigby's Campaign Team

Welcome to Will Rigby's SOY Fundraising Page!

Feb 14, 2019

Today, 1.2 million Americans are fighting or are in remission from blood cancer and every three minutes another person unwittingly joins the fight. Even with recent dramatic advances in treatment protocols, Leukemia still causes more deaths than any other cancer among children under the age of 20.

I have been given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join this battle. I am humbled to have been chosen as a candidate for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's 3rd annual "Students of the Year" fundraising campaign.

My campaign's goal is to raise at least $50,000 during the next seven weeks.  And i need your help and support.  At $50,000, i will have the privilege of funding a research grant, which i will dedicate to pediatric cancer and in honor of my brother Zachary.  For the last eleven years, i have watched my family tirelessly dedicate themselves to this cause since my brother Zachary's diagnosis of Adult Hodgkins Lymphoma on his 16th birthday.  Now, it's my turn!

Your tax deductible donation will help make a life-saving difference.  Donations go directly to LLS in support of its mission to find a cure and improve the quality of life of patients and their families - just like mine. 

Please follow our team Facebook page @WillRigby4SOY to keep up with our campaign and invite friends and family who would also like to donate!

Together, we can defeat blood cancer! #WillRigby4SOY #JoinTheFight

 

Thank you so much, Will Rigby and the Rigby Family

    Dear Will, I always knew from the first time I met you that you were very special. This effort is a great example of your solid character. As you are well aware, the motto for Dallas Jesuit College Prep is "Men For Others". Whether you know it or not you have just set the bar high for your brothers in the Class of 2020. Congratulations on your success here and best of luck in all of your future endeavors! Regards, Tom Ferrara JCP Class of '83

  • Dee Lincoln Ruley

    I had the privledge of meeting with Will personally. I witnessed how passionate he was about this campaign and how grateful he and his siblings are to have their brother Zachary beat this horrible disease. Also the amazing faith and strength that Steve and Cindy had thru this time. With the recent passing of my Dad, we must cherish the Gift Of Life. It’s the hardest thing i have ever experienced and a pain that I have never felt before. i am delayed in helping Will but going to assist in a final push. Also my Amazing friend Dawn Mellon whom i love and adore is a survivor and I witnessed her sweet daughter Erica do the same camopaign for her Mom. We are blessed to have both Will and Erica’s efforts to successfuly raise awareness. Sincerely, Dee Lincoln
