Dear Friends,
I'm training to participate in an endurance event as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team In Training. All of us on Team In Training are raising funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma from taking more lives. I am completing this event in honor of all individuals who are battling blood cancers.
Since its inception in 1988, when a team of 38 runners trained together for the NewYork City Marathon and raised $320,000, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Team In Training® program (TNT), has prepared more than 390,000 people—approximately 40,000 participants annually— to achieve their dream of completing a marathon, half marathon, triathlon, 100-mile (century) bicycle ride or hike adventure. And, in that time,TNT participants have raised over $950 million to support blood cancer research and patient services. The enormous success of this program has helped make possible advances in blood cancer therapies and treatments that have prolonged and enhanced the lives of hundreds of thousands of patients.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society ® (LLS) is the world’s largest voluntary health
agency dedicated to blood cancer. The LLS mission: Cure leukemia, lymphoma,
Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their
families. LLS funds lifesaving blood cancer research around the world and provides free
information and support services.
Please make a donation to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance LLS's mission.
Thanks for your support!
