Hi everyone!

I’m Sienna, and I am a candidate for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) 2023 Student Visionaries of the Year campaign. This campaign is a seven-week leadership development program that runs from January 26th to March 19th to raise money and help support the LLS mission to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.   

I have created a team of committed friends and family to partner with me on this journey. Together, we have set a fundraising goal of $15,000, and have chosen research as the LLS mission pillar to represent throughout our campaign.  

LLS funds the most promising blood cancer research across the globe and forges collaborations to accelerate new discoveries, treatments, and cures. With a more than 70-year track record, LLS has supported virtually every advancement in blood cancer treatment – including approaches once thought impossible. LLS is striving to raise $175 million to reimagine the standard of care for pediatric blood cancer through the Dare to Dream Project. Our vision is to move toward effective, safe treatments that target cancer precisely without harming the rest of the child’s body.

This mission is very important to me because my mom was once hospitalized for a month due to a stroke. Her recovery was the happiest thing I have ever experienced and I want to bring that kind of relief and joy to everyone who is suffering from a medical condition. 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. With your help, I can reach my goal and make a direct impact in the fight against blood cancers! 

I thank you in advance for partnering with a campaign so close to my heart, and please remember, every bit counts. 

 

Sienna's Student Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser

Nov 10, 2022

Visionaries look to the future—and see infinite possibility.
They challenge the status quo—and make the impossible possible.
They boldly imagine a better world – and lead the charge to create it.

 

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was built on that same vision - of a better world - one without blood cancers.

 

I am a visionary; I have a vision for a world without cancer, but I need your help.

 

This year, I’m proud to be a part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign, working to raise as much as possible for LLS’s mission.

 

As a global leader in the fight against blood cancer, LLS:

  • Funds cutting-edge research leading to breakthroughs in immunotherapy, genomics and personalized medicine that are improving and saving the lives of patients
  • Provides free education and support for blood cancer patients and families, including personalized, one-on-one support, assistance with identifying and enrolling in clinical trials, and more.
  • Mobilizes thousands of advocates to drive policy changes that accelerate the development of new cancer treatments and break down barriers to care.

Please consider joining this fight by making a donation. All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!

 

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

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you!
