Who is Joselin?
She's the 16 year old girl fighting the battle of her life with leukemia for the second time in one year. Regardless of her own battles and hardships, Joselin never fails to lighten up the mood in a room with her impeccable smile and sense of humor. She's the type of friend that is always there when someone needs her. Joselin is a strong and determined person who motivates herself and stays involved in school. She's is the Cadet Executive Officer of JROTC, is in the Law academy, plays soccer and volleyball, and is involved with the Union League Boys and Girls Club. Her day at school begins at 7:30am for JROTC and can end as late as 7:30 for sports. I've never met anyone that could uphold such a strong personality when their world is falling apart. Her positivity always motivates others. She's an individual who gives people a feeling of ease and humor, without ever expecting anything in return. Finding people this selfless and genuine is rare and as a result she deserves the world and all the help she can get to battle this desease.
Funds raised will help her family deal with medical bills, as well as additional day to day expenses.
