Nicole's Visionaries of the Year Fundraiser

Mar 10, 2025

For over a decade as a Certified Child Life Specialist in pediatric oncology, I have walked alongside hundreds of families as cancer causes physical suffering and wreaks psychological havoc. I have advocated tirelessly for interventions that engender coping and emotional safety, working to make these awful journeys somehow bearable. And, I have witnessed children, teens, and their families consequently find resilience! In the middle of crisis, they find comfort and confidence. They find their voices.        

 

Now, it's time for me to take my advocacy to a whole new level. 

 

I am proud to be a candidate in The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Visionaries of the Year campaign! Visionaries will work to raise as much money and awareness as possible in support of LLS's mission to eradicate blood cancers and enhance the lives of those still fighting.

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. 

Visionaries look to the future--and see infinite possibility. They boldly imagine a better world--and lead the charge to create it.

I have a vision. A vision for a world where no one has to sacrifice childhood, adolescence, or adulthood to chemo, radiation, and hospital stays. A world where each human can flourish. 

We can work together to create this! By partnering with me and LLS, you will make a significant impact towards LLS finding more cures and creating better quality of life for our children, teens, and loved ones. 

Any donation makes a difference, and all donations are greatly appreciated. Not to mention tax-deductible!

Please share this endeavor with someone in your circle- because awareness is how we create changeI genuinely appreciate your support and thank you in advance for championing a campaign so close to my heart.
