Shayna's Student Visionaries of the Year New York City Fundraiser

Feb 05, 2023

This year I'm proud to be a part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign. I am working to raise as much as possible for LLS's mission of a better world, one without blood cancers.

I am fundraising for LLS because a couple of years ago my grandfather got diagnosed with Lymphoma. It was a challenging time for him and our family as he underwent a lot of intense treatment. Since then he has made a great recovery. I am participating in this campaign to raise money to fund research and treatments so that other blood cancer patients can be as fortunate as my grandfather is.  

I am eager to raise money to help blood cancer patients (like my grandfather) not only survive but thrive after treatment. I have set a goal of $3,500 and I need you to reach it. The money raised helps LLS fund research to advance lifesaving treatments and take immense strides in creating a world without blood cancers, a world we would love and need to see. 

All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. Any amount helps and will be pivotal in finding a cure for blood cancers and improving the quality of life for patients. 

Please share the link to this page with everyone you know who might be interested!

Your efforts and my efforts will help ensure my generation is the last to see cancer.

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you!
