Student Visionaries of the Year Seattle

Eliana Awad | The Cure Crew

Eliana's Student Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser

Mar 31, 2025

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.

 

My grandfather passed away from Lymphoma before I was born, but I've always felt close to him through stories my mom has shared with me over the years. His legacy lives on in our family, and I'm participating in this campaign in honor of him and the fight he faced.

I dream of a future where no one has to lose a loved one to this devastating disease. By supporting The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, I hope to be part of the solution—to help fund the research that brings us closer to a cure. Together, we can make this dream a reality and ensure that future generations will know a world free from the fear of cancer.

 

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!
