Thank you for your support as I train as a team member for my first marathon. I've combined my goal of completing a marathon with fundraising efforts with The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's fight against blood cancer.

The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society .... LLS
Since it's establishment in 1949, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society has awarded over $550 million research grants to the best and brightest researchers in the world. Most life saving approaches to all malignant diseases were pioneered with leukemia research. Currently, The LLS will invest over $65 million this year into finding a cure.
Efforts of thousands of Society researchers over the past half-century have culmiated in genuine hope for many patients who, in earlier years, would have had no prospect of survival. Today, leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma and Hodgkin's disease have overall survival rates of 43%. One of the most incredible research advances has been the increasing cure rate for children with acute lymphocytic luekemia (ALL). Today over 80 percent of children diagnosed with ALL are surviving. In 1960, less than 5 percent of the children with ALL survived.
THE STRONG INVESTMENT IN RESEARCH MADE BY THE LLS IS DONE ONLY WITH THE GENEROUS SUPPORT OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU!
