The Elimination Incorporation's Students of the Year Fundraiser
Welcome to our team fundraising page!
We are the Elimination Incorporation, a group of high school students from New York City that is working to fund the fight against blood cancer. We are raising money for The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS) under the program Student of the Year, a 7 week competition in which teams across the NYC area compete to raise the most money for the cause. Our team is lead by three students at Bard High School Early College Queens (BHSECQ): Arundhuty Mondal (Junior), Aurora Donohue (Sophomore), and Clio Gourevitch (Junior).
We are asking you to join us in supporting LLS by making a donation to our fundraising campaign. Through a donation to LLS, you are supporting all of its work including research into blood cancer, assistance for patients with medical bills transportation and more, and advocacy in the form of campaigning for treatments and cures to be passed through the FDA so they can reach patients sooner. Every dollar counts.
Another aspect of LLS that we find especially important is their Children's Initiative. When you walk into the medical aisle of a pharmacy, you most likely will see many adult medicines, but you will also see their pediatric counterparts. In terms of cancer medication, there is no pediatric option. Because of this, children are often simply given smaller doses of adult treatments. However, children are not simply smaller adults, and this can cause serious medical complications down the line. Due to this, LLS has created a Children's Initiative which is dedicated to creating a viable treatment or cure for childhood cancer.
Please help our team reach our goal of $70,000 by making a donation to this page, sharing this page with as many people as you can, and continuing to read our email updates throughout the campaign. With your help, our team will push to support LLS in their pursuit of a world without cancer.
Thank you,
Arundhuty, Aurora, and Clio
