27th Annual Washington, DC
Man & Woman of the Year Campaign 

 

Please join the MWOY Executive Leadership Team in celebrating the 27th Anniversary Man & Woman of the Year campaign here in the National Capital Area Chapter!  Our goal is to raise $218,000 to help support our 21 amazing candidates reach their collective goal of $2.3M!  

Since this campaign started here in DC in 1992, the research advances in blood cancer have been truly astonishing. LLS research grants have funded many of today's most promising advances, including targeted therapies and immunotherapies, and some of the therapies first approved for blood cancer patients are now helping patients with other types of cancers and other serious diseases. in 2017 alone, we have seen 12 FDA approvals for blood cancer therapies.  None of this would be possible without individuals like you who have helped lead the way to making someday, today.

We really are getting close to our goal of a world without blood cancers!

We hope you'll join us in the fight bymaking a donation.  All donations are greatly appreciated and tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS research, but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well.

If you would like to join us at the best part of the year, the Grand Finale Awards Gala, please contact Megan.Swahn@lls.org or 703.399.2922 to learn more about ticket purchase or sponsorship opportunities.  We hope to see you there!  

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you for your support! For more information about LLS, please visit www.lls.org
