Thank you for visiting my fundraising page, welcome!
I encourage you to join me in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. By donating to LLS, you support the many aspects of LLS’s mission work from investing in groundbreaking research, providing education and support to patients, and advocating at the state and federal level for legislation to help those living with cancer. My appreciation for your support cannot be overstated — each and every dollar donated to LLS brings us closer to our goal to end blood cancer and makes an impact for cancer patients and their families.
As a global leader in the fight to end cancer, LLS is committed to doing more for blood cancer patients and families than any organization in the world. LLS’s signature fundraising campaigns drive critical support for its mission, including a nearly $1.3 billion investment in cutting edge cancer research worldwide since it was founded in 1949. Since the 1960s, survival rates for many blood cancer patients have doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled.
Every part of LLS’s mission – research, education and support, and policy and advocacy – work in harmony to put blood cancer patients and their families first. LLS has helped millions impacted by cancer throughout its more than 70-year history, even funding breakthrough blood cancer research to advance lifesaving treatments and cures that is now helping patients with other cancers and diseases. That is why at LLS we say that beating cancer is in our blood.
Please visit my website as often as you can and share it with everyone you know who would also like to join us in the fight against cancer. One way to help would be to post this link on social medias, such as facebook and instagram. Spread the word! Together, we have the power, the passion and the resolve to achieve a world without blood cancer. All donations are tax-deductible.
On behalf of cancer patients and their families everywhere, I sincerely thank you for your support! This is something I am passionate about and I am so glad you could help.

Ayumi, I had the pleasure of working with your mom at Reed Smith. She was always such a happy and kind-hearted person and a pleasure to work with, but more importantly, she raised a wonderful daughter and would be so very proud of you. Keep up the great work! You are beautiful soul, just like your mom.

Ayumi, we got to work with your mom while she was at Reed Smith. Even while battling cancer, she worked hard, was kind and thoughtful of others. We see all of that in you, in your efforts to raise money for this cause. You are an extension of her and will carry her memory on. Perry and Maria Napolitano

Ayumi, I am so proud of you for your efforts in raising money to try to defeat the demon cancer. I think you know that not a day goes by that I don't miss your mom. I say hi to her picture every morning and often chat with her when I'm alone in the car. XO, Schmaak

Dear Ayumi, I never had the pleasure of meeting your mom, but I know that if she was anything like you, I would have loved her. I’m sure she is so proud of who you are and the good that you are doing right now. ❤️

Dear Ayumi, We lost my niece Jaime to leukemia so I appreciate your efforts very much. I also think of your mom often and am still inspired by her grit and determination, traits she shared with Jaime. Wishing you the best, Cindy Lott (Hearts of Steel)

I worked with Mary for many years at Reed Smith and found her courage inspiring when I was going through my own cancer treatment. She was an amazing woman.
