Student Visionaries of the Year Pittsburgh

Team Sarah and Kacy | Team Ginny Strong

Team's Student Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser

Feb 09, 2023

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was built on a vision - of a better world - one without blood cancers.

 

Team Ginny Strong - Sarah Vescio and Kacy Christensen - are relentless for a cure. We need your help!

 

This year, we are very 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 juniors on the Seneca Valley girls' soccer team, we were deeply impacted when our goalie, Ginny, was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma this past August. We were inspired by her fight to make an effort to impact the community. As a part of our campaign, your donations are a large part of taking a step to finding a cure. ALL donations are used in Western Pennsylvania to benefit blood cancer patients and their families.

 

Our goal is $30,000. Please consider joining this fight by making a donation.  All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. Please visit our website often and tell friends who would also like to donate! 

 

Thanks to your support, our efforts will help ensure this generation is the last to see cancer.

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you!

    On behalf of the Fronk family, a HUGE thank you to Sarah and Kacy for bringing awareness to this cause!!! LLS is the largest nonprofit funder of leading edge research. The advances that have been made in the treatment of this disease has not only increased survival rates and decreased recurrence but has helped to minimize side effects (both short term and long term), which has been key in Ginny getting back to the sport she loves. Thank you to everyone for your generous donations to this amazing organization!!!
