Welcome to Ben Finnell's SOY Fundraising Page!
Hello Friends and Family! Welcome To My Fundraising Page!
I am Ben Finnell, thank you for joining me in the fight against Blood Cancers!
In 2017, 62,130 people just in America have been affected by Leukemia, and 80,500 people in 2017 as well, have been affected by Lymphoma. That is a total of 142,630 families ONLY in america that have suffered because of a loved one has been affected by this awful cancer. On the bright side, Leukemia & Lymphoma society has fundraised over $1 billion! Also, since 1995, survival rates have nearly quadrupled. I am so happy I am getting this chance to help so many families across the world.
In the picture above are 2 of the honored heroes Named Gautam (Bottom Right) who is a survivor of B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leuekemia, And Faith (Bottom Middle) who is a survivor of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. They are great reminders for what we are fighting for! Also, two of my teammates Named Lauren Davis (Top Left), and Sam Altman (Top Right).
Thank you very much for your donation and I am happy you are helping fight the common enemy!
