MASSACHUSETTS CHAPTER
The 2010 Massachusetts Chapter Lymphomathon
Saturday • May 1, 2010 - Salem Willows Park, Salem - Massachusetts
Join hundreds of survivors and caregivers as they walk to raise funds for lymphoma research and education!
The Lymphomathon is a non-competitive 5K walk where survivors, family, friends, community and corporate teams walk in honor and in memory of those whose lives have been touched by lymphoma. Funds raised by participants will support LRF's mission of eradicating lymphoma and serving those touched by this disease. Click here for more information
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.
