LLS has helped advance every critical advancement in blood cancer treatment, including CAR T-cell immunotherapies that supercharge patients' own immune cells to attack cancer. LLS helped advance more than 75% of blood cancer treatments in the last 5 years. LLS is awarding funding to major cancer centers to bring world-class care to underserved blood cancer patients.
LLS helps patients and families throughout their entire cancer experience with free, one-on-one support. LLS is the leading source of free blood cancer information, education, and support for patients, survivors, caregivers, families, and healthcare professionals. Our Clinical Trail Nurse Navigators are registered nurses with expertise in blood cancers and personally assist patients, parents and caregivers throughout the entire clinical trial process.
At LLS, we are relentless to effect meaningful change that breaks down barriers to care and safely accelerates the development of new treatments. LLS advocates for policies at the state and federal level that safely accelerate the development of new treatments and break down barriers to care. LLS is taking action to reduce patients' out-of-pocket costs, address financial toxicity and protect public health and cancer patients, during this crisis and beyond. LLS is determined to make treatment options accessible to every patient and prevent discrimination against cancer patients based on race and other factors.
Born out of a family's grief following the death of their teenage son ‘Robbie’, parents Rudolph and Antoinette de Villiers started a fundraising and education organization in their son's name. With a few volunteers and a tiny budget, they took on the daunting task of finding a cure for ‘this hopeless disease that was 100% fatal.’ Driven by the de Villiers' nearly boundless belief that blood cancers were indeed curable, The Foundation grew steadily, opening its first chapters in the New York City area. The organization was renamed The Leukemia Society of America in the 1960s to communicate a broad, national reach. Today, there are over 56 chapters of dedicated volunteers working tirelessly to help achieve our mission.
GRIN Esports is a charity driven organization first and foremost. We do small charity drives throughout the year in between the planning of our larger annual events with charities like Able Gamers, The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, and more!
