Hi all! Thank you so so much for following my campaign and reading about what I am doing! I am so excited to be able to introduce and tell you more about myself! 

I am a Senior at Caldwell High School! I am highly involved in the Choir department in school. This is my third year in Madrigals, the top mixed ensamble. My third year in Concord, the top womens choir. And I spent one year in A Capella, an advanced mixed chorus. I have also been a dancer since I was 4 years old! I have been dancing Ballet and Tap. This is my 12th season with this company. I dance Ballet and Tap. 

As I started thinking about what I wanted to do in my Senior year and what I wanted to do in High school, to make an impact and leave my legacy here in Caldwell. I didn't know. Not one single bit. But then I got a call from my former Student council advisor, Andrea Arnold, about this program. After my first meeting, I was sold. I wanted to do everything I could to be part of this amazing program.

I am so excited to get started! 

XOXO,

Reese Kinney

I am honored to participate as a team member for the 2020 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 candidate 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!
