Hi! My name is Alexa Davison, and I'm a junior at Tampa Prep. I have been dancing since I was 3 and have just recently gotten into racing cars and spending time on the race track with my family. 
I am so excited to take on this challenge for a second year, but this time as a legacy candidate! I have been extremely blessed with a healthy and happy life, family, as well as opportunities I wish I could share with everyone. So, I want to give back to my community in any way I can! I am hoping to be apart of the last generation to see cancer's impact, and the first to see it be cured. I can't wait to grow from this experience and learn life lessons I couldn't get anywhere else. This truly is an amazing opportunity for me to help others. Thank you so much for taking the time to look further into my campaign and donating! :)

I am honored to participate as a candidate 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 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!
