Help the LLS Angels and Hospital-Bound Kids

Every December the North Texas Chapter of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) collects new toys for children who are forced to spend the holidays in the hospital because they are in treatment for a blood cancer.  You are invited to participate and help us make the holidays a little brighter for a child forced to spend this joyous time away from their family.  Please consider donating a new toy (full list of suggested items) to a young patient this holiday.

Contact Tiffany Valeri with questions about the program at Tiffany.Valeri@lls.org or (972) 996-5926.

Mission Monday: Gingerbread House Fundraiser

In San Francisco, CA a little boy named Rhett created a spectacular gingerbread house in The Fairmont Hotel to raise money and awareness of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and blood cancers.  In front of this life-size gingerbread house he posted this note:

My name is Rhett.  My sister's name is Annesley.

Happy Holidays and Welcome to the Fairmont Hotel Gingerbread House.

Leukemia is cancer in my blood

Cancer cells are the bad guys.

I take chemo to get the bad guys out.

Thank you for raising money to help get the bad guys out.

Someday we will all say GONE WITH THE CANCER

My name is Rhett and I GIVE A DAMN

We are thankful for volunteers of all ages who work tirelessly to further the LLS mission to create a world without blood cancers.

Happy Holidays from North Texas!

Freebie Friday: A Jazzy Christmas Celebration

The North Texas Chapter of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is thankful to have the support of so many individuals.  Many participate in our local events while others make donations throughout the year and others create third party events to benefit LLS and our fight to create a world without blood cancers.

A Jazzy Christmas Celebration with John Holiday and his Big Band is an opportunity for you to get into the Holiday spirit with a fun evening out with a portion of the proceeds to benefit the North Texas Chapter.

Happy Holidays!
