Affiliate Board Member; is our Junior Board not our Governing Board

Overview

As the nation's largest nonprofit focused exclusively on funding leukemia research, our grants are accelerating the development of new and better treatments and an ultimate cure for leukemia. Through our patient-centered approach, access to leukemia experts, and nationwide partnerships, our support programs help patients and their loved ones navigate every step of the cancer journey.

The Affiliate Board of the Leukemia Research Foundation (also known as the Jr. Board) is a vibrant group of young professionals dedicated to supporting the Foundation’s mission to conquer leukemia.
Acting independently from the Foundation’s governing board, the Affiliate Board focuses on fostering social connections and leading impactful fundraising efforts. Members come together through networking, social events, and collaborative initiatives to advance research for a cure and improve the lives of those affected by leukemia.
