Leukemia & Lymphoma Society

woman runner

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is the world's largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer research and providing education and patient services. The Society's mission: Cure leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. Since its founding in 1949, the Society has invested more than $550 million in research specifically targeting leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. Last year alone, the Society made 5.1 million contacts with patients, caregivers and healthcare professionals.

One Extraordinary Vision: In 2015, the majority of patients with blood cancer are either cured—or they are able to manage their condition with good quality of life. In some cases, diseases may be prevented. Effective treatments, information, resources and support are widely accessible and patients are aware of them, enabling patients, their families and caregivers to cope effectively throughout their cancer journeys.
— Dwayne Howell, President & CEO, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
