Where does the money go?

As part of Team in Training, we are raising money to benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). You may be wondering, what happens to my donation?

LLS is one of the most efficiently managed non-profits in the country - just over 76 cents of every dollar is spent directly on mission-related activities.

Here are some examples of what a donation can buy:
  • $25 - provides patients and their loved ones with FREE booklets that contain up-to-date information on their disease and help them make informed decisions about their treatment options
  • $50 - makes possible a Family Support group with a trained facilitator where comfort can be found and experiences can be shared among patients and family members
  • $100 - helps supply laboratory researchers with supplies and materials critical to carrying out their search for cures
  • $500 - could provide patient aid to a person with a blood cancer for a year
  • $1,000 - makes possible one-on-one conversations with health care specialists who provide patients with information about their disease, treatment options, and helps prepare them with questions for their health care team
Please donate now to support this wonderful organization and help us reach our goal!
