At work for you
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada (LLSC)
Our mission is to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.
- Survivors and their families are increasingly in need of LLSC provided support, education and patient services.
- LLSC is the only charitable organization focused on all blood cancers.
- In Canada 22,340 people are diagnosed with a blood cancer every year.
- An estimated 138,100 Canadians are living with, or in remission from, a blood cancer.
- Every 23 minutes someone in Canada is diagnosed with a blood cancer; every 73 minutes someone passes away.
- Over the past 10 years, LLSC has invested more than $23 million into funding 162 research grants.
How You Can Get Involved
Light the Night
Light The Night is the Society’s annual evening to, pay tribute, bring hope and celebrate the blood cancer community. Each year, teams of friends, families, and co-workers raise millions of dollars for support services and research to improve the lives of people impacted by a blood cancer. On the evening of Light The Night, participants gather in cities and towns across Canada with illuminated lanterns, white for survivors, gold to remember a loved one and red for supporters, to celebrate their efforts throughout the year.
