Support Lung Cancer Prevention and Awareness | Homecoming 2026
Description
My platform is Lung Cancer Awareness, Education, & Prevention. I have chosen
this platform because my grandfather passed away my sophomore year to lung
cancer. In his honor, I will be running on this platform to raise money to help
those fighting lung cancer as well. Through my platform, and the support of my
sponsoring organization, I will work to help students and the surrounding area of
Virginia Tech be aware of the effects of lung cancer on patients, families, and
friends. I will also work to educate students and the surrounding area on how it
forms, why it is important to get checked, how to get checked, and the resources
that can help support individuals suffering from any form of exposure. Lastly, I
will also work to help prevent individuals from being diagnosed with lung cancer.
I will do this by helping individuals understand what causes it, therefore, what to
avoid. Additionally, I will be working to raise money to help find a cure
throughout my campaign.
