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.

I am participating in honor of my good friend Kelley Campbell. She was diagnosed with leukemia at a very young age and unfortunately, her treatment paralyzed the lower portion of her body and she has been wheelchair ridden ever since. The treatment did work (praise God!!) but she was left with mental scars and the fear of her illness coming back. I am fighting for the people like Kelley. I have hope that we are close to a safe and incredible cure, and with your donations I know that we can get there!

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!
