For A Cure...
Dear Friends & Family,
I want you to imagine hearing the three words, “You have cancer.”
Sadly, this has been a reality for more than 1.3 million Americans who are fighting or are in remission from blood cancer. Almost every high school student wants the chance to partake in something that will change the world; in 2020, I will have that chance.
I am very excited to share with you that I am participating in The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Students of the Year program. Students of the Year is a 7-week philanthropic competition for high school leaders seeking to make an impact in the fight against cancer. This cause is incredibly important to me because blood cancer, specifically leukemia, is the most commonly diagnosed form of cancer in children and young adults
My team, team Boundless’s fundraising goal is to raise $50,888, between March 10 and April 30th. It is a lofty goal, but I am determined to leave my mark on the fight against cancer to the best of my ability. I cannot achieve my goal alone, though; I need your help. There are a few ways you can support my fundraising efforts:
-
Make a tax-deductible donation to my online fundraising page: https://events.lls.org/oak/ebsoy22/rgill4
-
Share my message & fundraising link with your contacts via email or social media
-
Donate a silent auction item for the Grand Finale Celebration auction
-
Help me secure a corporate sponsorship (Sponsorships start at $5,000, and sponsors receive Grand Finale benefits)
Not only is Students of the Year a great way to support The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), but it is also a great leadership experience for me. Being part of this campaign means so much to be, and I am proud to help my generation be the last to see cancer.
I can’t wait to share the exciting updates of the next seven weeks with you. Stay tuned to see what my team and I can accomplish.
Thank you for your support,
Rami Gill

Rami's Students of the Year Fundraiser
I have signed up to save lives with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) and am working to raise as much as possible over the next 7 weeks. Every dollar raised counts as one vote for my campaign. The candidate(s) whose team tallies the most votes earns the prestigious title of Student or Students of the Year. Will you help me earn that title?
As you know, everyone wins when cancer loses. Thanks to your support, my efforts will help fund therapies and treatments that are saving lives. Over the years, support from people like you has been responsible for the blood cancer advancements that have doubled, tripled, and in some cases quadrupled the survival rate for some blood cancers.
Many LLS-supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are also now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers and are in clinical trials for patients with lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers. And LLS-funded drugs like targeted therapies and immunotherapies are now saving thousands of lives every day.
We really are getting close to our goal of a world without blood cancers!
All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. They'll not only support LLS research, but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well.
Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!
On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you for your support! For more information about LLS, please visit www.lls.org
