Reese's Student Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser

VISIONARIES... look to the FUTURE - and see INFINATE POSSIBILTY.
They CHALLANGE the status quo - and make the IMPOSSIBLE  POSSIBLE.
They boldly IMAGINE a better world - and LEAD a team to CREATE IT.

I recently lost my Granddad on 10/25/23 due to Leukemia, Prostate & Skin Cancers. He fought a hard battle & lived a good, long life. 

My Granddad was always there for me from the very beginning! He loved the outdoors, the hard work of ranching, woodworking, and redbirds! 

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 to END CANCER ONCE AND FOR ALL!

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!

MY GOAL IS TO RAISE MONEY FOR CANCER RESEARCH TO HELP END CANCER!

MY FUNDRAISING EVENTS: 




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!
