Our Culture

At LLS, advocacy is in our blood. We are a vibrant community of researchers, volunteers, philanthropists, advocates, healthcare professionals, and nonprofit leaders.

We work tirelessly to find cures for blood cancers and help every patient access the care they need to survive and thrive. We believe our individual backgrounds, identities, abilities, and experiences are our greatest sources of creativity and innovation in creating a more equitable world without blood cancer.
