Why Paisley wants to be a voice for children fighting cancer:

I want to be a voice for this company, and for all children fighting, because cancer needs to end. I’m only 13 years old, and have met and known countless people of all ages who have suffered, and many of them lost, the battle with this horrifying disease. I never want to see anyone else, especially young adults and children, having to live with cancer. I can’t imagine the pain, or having to basically live in the hospital. I have heard so many horrible cancer stories, and I don’t want to have to keep hearing them. We need to find a cure, and we need to do it now.
