The Woodlands Warriors for a Cure raises awareness for cancer, partners with LLS
The Woodlands Christian Academy's high school students have formed The Woodlands Warriors for a Cure, a team focused on raising awareness about cancer through a partnership with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). Under the leadership of sophomore Donovan Bowers, the team has successfully raised $19,000, reflecting their commitment to a cause that holds personal significance for many members. Their outreach efforts included letter writing campaigns, community engagement, and partnerships with local businesses to promote awareness. Team member Caden Powell shared his motivation, citing personal experiences with family members affected by cancer, underscoring the project's urgency. The funds raised will support vital research, education, and advocacy initiatives aimed at combating blood cancers.
This initiative not only highlights the students' dedication to service but also embodies the Christian values of compassion and love for others that The Woodlands Christian Academy instills. The Warriors for a Cure is a testament to the power of youth-led initiatives in making a tangible difference in the community. As Donovan Bowers stated, they are spreading God's Kingdom through their actions, showcasing the impact of faith in action.
