LLS FIREFIGHTER STAIRCLIMB 2025
Every year, firefighters from around the world come together to take on the ultimate challenge: climbing the stairs of Seattle’s Columbia Center to drive forward the mission of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). With every step, they raise critical funds for lifesaving blood cancer research, free patient support, and advocacy for better healthcare policies.
