I can honestly say Students of the Year was the greatest learning experience I have ever had. The interactions I had with people who were so proud of my fundraising and lessons of persistence when trying to succeed in something, were incredible.

This is an experience that you can find in few other places as a high schooler. I was excited to get the chance to help out blood cancer patients, but I never imagined just how much of a difference I could help make. LLS is doing amazing things and I think they're close to a cure. I'm honored to say I was a part of such a great program.
