This race goal is to raise funds to provide assistance to Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS).
In 2022, LLS took bold steps to improve the futures of blood cancer patients and survivors dealing with more than 100 blood cancers, including leukemia, lymphoma, and Myeloma.
1. 14 new blood cancer treatment options were approved by FDA, many because of longstanding LLS support.
2. LLS funded 117 scientists and invested in 17 Therapy Acceleration Program (TAP) partners to advance next-generation blood cancer research.
LLS is thankful for our supporters and volunteers who help continue advancing the LLS mission in Arkansas providing life-saving resources, research, and financial support. Below is a snapshot of how LLS impacted the people of Arkansas in FY22.
