About The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society®, headquartered in White Plains, NY, with 58 chapters in the United States and Canada, is the world’s largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer research and providing education and patient services. LLS’ mission: Cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. Leukemia is a major killer of children between the ages of 2 and 14, and it claims the lives of 11 times as many adults as children. While more patients than ever before are surviving their cancers, someone dies of leukemia, lymphoma, or myeloma every 10 minutes in the United States.

IRC information specialists are available at (800) 955-4572, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET.
