Student Visionaries of the Year New York City

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

I was introduced to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by one of my beloved dance teachers, Julia Kane, who has become a wonderful mentor, inspiration, and friend. Julia is a survivor of Hodgkin's lymphoma, a talented artist, dancer, and caring person (not to mention unbelievely funny). It is hard to imagine spending my Monday afternoons or Wednesday evenings anywhere but in her class. It is my gratitude to Julia that has driven my passion to help represent LLS’s mission, to find a cure for blood cancers and improve the quality of life for patients. 

I am eager to raise money to help blood cancer patients not only survive but thrive after treatment and I'm even happier to do it with my best friends. I have set a personal fundraising goal of $10,000 and I need your help 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. 

My campaign will provide support to the critical work of LLS in hopes that one day no one will have to grow up without the ones they love, so please consider joining this fight by making a donation. 

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 anyone you know who might be interested!

Thanks to your support, my efforts will help ensure my generation is the last to see cancer.

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you!
