The Mission is Critical

The Facts

Approximately every 4 minutes one person in the United States is diagnosed with a blood cancer.

Approximately every 10 minutes, someone in the US dies from a blood cancer. This statistic

represents nearly 150 people each day or more than six people every hour.

Leukemia is the leading cause of cancer death of children and young adults under the age of 20.

How Your Dollars Are Used

To date, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) has invested almost $1 billion in research aimed at helpingall blood cancer patients live longer, healthier lives. We will continue to support research through our

innovative and integrated funding programs, until every patient has a safe and effective therapy.

Research: In fiscal year 2013 alone, LLS invested $73.8 million in cutting-edge research.

Patient Services: LLS provides a range of services, such as family support groups, an extensive educational

website, free seminars and conferences, direct patient financial aid and co-pay assistance.

Education: LLS serves as the world’s foremost source of information on blood cancers including an

Information Resource Center, (800) 955-4572, an extensive collection of free educational materials,

professional education and an award-winning website.

Advocacy: LLS’s advocacy program has a strong voice in Washington, DC representing the healthcare and

medical research interests of patients and their families to policy makers at all levels of government.



Campaign At-a-Glance

WhatEach year, in communities across the country, dynamic, passionate candidates engage in a spirited

competition to earn The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s “Man & Woman of the Year” titles, by raising

funds for blood cancer research. The candidates complete in honor of children who are local blood cancer

survivors, the Boy & Girl of the Year. Every dollar raised counts as one vote, and the titles are awarded to

the man and woman with the most votes at the end of ten weeks; the top local fundraisers in the country

win the national titles. The ten weeks begins with a Kickoff Party and culminates with a Grand Finale

celebration. Nationally in 2013 LLS’s Man & Woman of the Year campaign raised $22.8 million for research

and patient services and our goal in 2014 is even more aggressive. Locally we raised $330,000!

WhoCandidates for Man & Woman of the Year are extraordinary people. They are individuals from both the

social and business communities who are relentless in their efforts to find cures for blood cancers, and are

well-connected in their communities. The campaign generates awareness both locally and nationally

through press releases, exposure in print advertisements, and public transit advertising in some markets.

Grand Finale Gala CelebrationSponsors, candidates, campaign teams, friends, family, survivors, and other LLS supporters will gather for

the announcement of the Man & Woman of the Year. The evening will include cocktails, food, music and

silent and live auctions. In 2013, 350 people attended the Grand Finale Gala to honor the 10 candidates

who made up the class of 2013. In 2014, attendance is expected to meet or exceed 350.

Grand Finale date: May 17, 2014.
