American Cancer Society

High Schoolers Against Lung Cancer is an initiative run by high school students looking to raise money for lung cancer research. We aim to show that anyone at any age can help in the fight against lung cancer, no matter what your position in life is. Many people will face life-changing issues in their life, but currently, we are fortunate enough not to hear the news of how many weeks we have left to live, or how rare this form of lung cancer is. We want to help prevent people from ever needing to hear that life-changing diagnosis, and if they do, we want to help with a cure.

This initiative is close to us as a community as we see a rapid growth in the usage of vapes in schools. In 2023, 10% of all highschoolers reported vaping, whilst 4.6% of middle schoolers reported using a vape. This tied in with smoking is an issue that needs to be addressed but also needs a solution.

The initiative is headed by Norman Decelles, a student at Mount Saint Charles Academy and an Eagle Scout. “This program is near and dear to my heart. I have personally seen the impact lung cancer has on the lives of those directly and indirectly affected. Lung Cancer can affect anyone at any time. Each year, around 209,000 people will be diagnosed with lung cancer, 132,000 will die from this. This is a rapidly growing problem facing us, and we need to take an initiative to stop it.”

100% of all donations will be donated to the American Cancer Society, whose mission is “to improve the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research, and patient support, to ensure everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.”

Hi! We’re Avery Campbell and Ava Grace Sanderson, two students at Broughton High School in Raleigh, NC.

As members of DECA, we’re participating in a Community Giving Project for the North Carolina DECA Competition in February 2025.

In November, we helped with the American Cancer Society NC Golf Classic to raise funds for childhood cancer. We worked closely with the event directors to create a revenue-boosting game.

This fundraiser is the next part of our project. All donations will be given to the American Cancer Society. Thank you for your support, and have a wonderful holiday!

I am Kamil, a high school sophomore attending the French-American School of New York with a passion for running and a mission to make a difference. On April 27, 2025, I aim to take on the Brooklyn Half Marathon, one of the most prestigious races in the Tri-State area, to support a cause close to my heart: the fight against cancer. With a goal to raise $25,000 for the American Cancer Society, I hope to honor those impacted by cancer in our families and beyond. Join me in saving lives, funding research, and making a lasting impact—every step counts!

My brother, a Vietnam Veteran, a retired detective on the Port Authority Police at JFK Airport, and former investigator for the state of New York, has brain cancer. I hope people will donate to the American Cancer Society to work on cures. John has two children and 6 grandchildren. He lived a life of service, putting his life on the line for others. Now I ask for your generosity, to donate to the American Cancer Society, on behalf of John L. Brown, so that it may save others in the future! Thank you and God Bless You.
