Leukemia Support
In 1946, the Leukemia Research Foundation was established in Chicago to memorialize 12-year-old Sherwin Pessin. Leukemia was a well-known but not well-understood disease. For Sherwin, as well as thousands of other children and adults, there was no hope and no possibility for a cure.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society® (LLS) is the global leader and innovator in creating a world without blood cancer.
Childhood Leukemia Foundation is dedicated to educating, empowering, and lifting the spirits of children living with cancer.
