Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed so far!  Team "Just Cure It" has kicked off our campaign with a bang!  Our challenge this week is two fold.  

First, we have set a rather lofty goal for direct donations.  Please consider donating to this incredible cause and SHARE THE WORD!  Sharing this link on social media is a quick and easy way to help further our cause!  

Second, we are soliciting donations for the LLS Student of The Year Gala Auction that will be held at the end of the campaign.  Every dollar raised by donations procured by team "Just Cure It" goes to our overall team total!  

If you have friends who own businesses, season tickets to sporting events, a vacation home getaway, airline miles, gift cards, or any other type of donation that you would like to contribute to the gala, please email us at:

Let's do this!!!

Hello Friends!!!

I am honored to participate as a member of Emma Laboe and Lily Conway's team "Just Cure It!" for the 2019 Students of the Year program, a seven-week initiative in which select high school students from around the country participate in a fundraising competition to benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I am proud to support my team and am raising critical dollars in honor of a young patient hero who is currently battling or is in remission from a blood cancer. Each dollar is a vote. The candidate team that raises the most money at the end of the seven weeks is named Student of the Year. Our mission is to not only raise the most money but also to bring attention to blood cancers like leukemia, which is the most common form of cancer in children and teens.

Since the early 1960s, five-year survival rates for many blood cancer patients have doubled, tripled or even quadrupled. And many LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are helping patients with other cancers and serious diseases. In fact, drugs first approved for blood cancers are now approved to treat patients with stomach cancers, skin cancers, and autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis.

We really are changing the face of blood cancer!

All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS-funded research but will help provide critical information and support for patients, and support advocacy for laws to ensure patients can access the care and treatments they need.

Please visit our website often and bring friends who would also like to donate!

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you for your support!
