Please join me in supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) by making a donation to this amazing fundraising campaign. Together our efforts will help fund therapies and treatments that will save lives today.

Over the years, through research and continuing advancement in therapy, LLS's efforts have been responsible for the doubling, tripling and even in some cases quadrupling of the blood cancer survival rate.  

Many of the LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers. In addition, these therapies are also being tested in clinical trials for patients with a range of cancers including lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancer.

LLS’s work also goes beyond the scope of cancer.  Some of their funded drugs are now being tested for patients with non-cancerous diseases such as Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Multiple Sclerosis.

Donations to LLS will support research, patient services, advocacy, community services, as well as public and professional education.

This seven-week campaign from February 3^rd to March 23^rd is not just about raising money; it is also about spreading the word and creating awareness regarding blood cancers.  I know with your help we can change the face of blood cancer and the many other diseases LLS has put its support behind.

This is a 20/20 campaign where I am asking each of you to consider donating $20 and sharing this wonderful opportunity to make a difference with 20 people in your circle.

Any amount of donation is greatly appreciated and is tax deductible. But most of all, please participate and spread the word.

Please visit this Web site often and bring friends who would also like to participate!

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere I thank you for your support!
