Dear Friends and Family,

Did you know that The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society has a new name? Blood Cancer United is an evolution—not a new beginning—that will help us meet our bold goal: to enable patients with blood cancer to gain more than one million years of life by 2040.

With the name Blood Cancer United, we can now reach more people who need us—people affected by all 100+ types of blood cancer. Our mission is not changing. And we will continue to be a global leader in blood cancer—research, support, and advocacy.
�Your support helps everyone fighting cancer!

Please click on this link https://pages.lls.org/tnt/team/wdw26/AHoward

and support my efforts to raise money for life-saving research. With your help, we have invested more than $2 billion in groundbreaking research supporting many of today's most innovative approaches to treatment—helping those with blood cancer not only survive but also thrive.

Blood Cancer United makes a difference everyday and today we make a difference because of your donation. Remember all donations are 100% tax deductible. Thank you for your support.

Go Team!
~Freda
