To All,

We want to tell you "THANKS!"  Thank you for clicking, swiping, scanning, chasing flamingos or whatever you had to do to find our page and donate to this cause.  We are childhood best friends who happen to also be graduating seniors from Brandeis and John Jay School of Engineering. Way to Class of 2019 and Northside ISD! 

More importantly, we have joined together to do our part in the fight against cancer. We have both had our lives touched by cancer and wanted to make a difference in the lives of those that are fighting this disease. We know that none of this is possible without your support. So from the two of us, our families and our friends that have committed to help us in this journey, THANK YOU! 

Please feel free to visit our personal pages to hear our stories.

Again, words alone can not express our gratitude. We truly appreciate your contributions and support. Together, we can make a difference!

Colby and Harrison

I am honored to participate in 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 be 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(s) 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!
