The 2010 Massachusetts Chapter Lymphomathon
Saturday • May 1, 2010 - Salem Willows Park, Salem - Massachusetts
Thank you to the committee, walkers, team leaders, sponsors, in-kind supporters and volunteers for your hard work and dedication. As a result of your support, the Massachusetts Lymphomathon 5K Walk raised over $83,000!
Funds raised from the event will support the Foundation's mission to eradicate lymphoma and serve those touched by this disease. Thanks again for your support and we look forward to walking with you in May 2011!
Making a Difference: The LRF Advocacy Program
The Massachusetts Chapter provides important public policy and advocacy updates for chapter members, advocates and volunteers.
Our local Advocacy Program focuses on taking action on laws, policies and positions that affect every lymphoma patient and survivor. By contacting elected officials via phone calls, e-mail and letters in support of these priorities, local advocates help LRF to make lymphoma a national health priority.
We encourage you to attend a local chapter meeting, so that you can learn more about the LRF Advocacy Program, and to receive an update on federal policies likely to affect the lymphoma community. To become involved with these advocacy efforts, contact your local Advocacy Chair today at
advocacy@lymphoma.org.
The Chapter Focuses On:
• Increasing awareness about lymphoma.
• Assisting newly diagnosed patients and their families in finding the help they need.
• Raising funds for lymphoma research.
• Advocating for federal funding for lymphoma research.
Get involved today!
