Purpose of LLS at UCLA

The LLS Club at UCLA intends to provide support and care for cancer patients through several means. Many, if not all of these means, will be coordinated in conjunction with the Leukemia Lymphoma Society.

The LLS Club at UCLA will fundraise for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society through campus events, social gatherings, and fundraisers. The LLS Club at UCLA hopes to educate students on the biological, psychological, and social implications of blood cancers as well as how to best support patients and their families. The organization aims to provide guidance for students by coordinating mentorships with professionals, senior members, and alumni, and providing professional development opportunities.

The higher purpose of the organization is to unite individuals to stand up against leukemia and lymphoma in a safe and supportive community. This is accomplished through patient advocacy, research, education, and fundraising.

“Our bold vision is for patients to not only survive their cancers, but thrive in their lives after treatment.”

— The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society
