About The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society

Every three minutes, someone new is diagnosed with blood cancer.  Every 10 minutes, someone dies.  Team In Training is the world’s first and largest endurance sports training program, which has raised over $1.4 billion to fight blood cancers.  In exchange for training and support, Team in Training participants help raise money towards cures for blood cancers like leukemia — the No.  1 disease killer of children — lymphoma and myeloma.  The North Texas Chapter of LLS gave more than $1.25 million in copay assistance to blood cancer patients in 2015 and over $33 million was dedicated to research grants in Texas.
