Share Your Story

Putting a face to an issue can often go a long way toward rising above the noise in the halls of Congress. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is helping to put the faces and stories of blood cancer patients, survivors, care givers and loved ones in front of their elected officials through two projects – without needing to leave the house!

Picture of Hope

Your picture will be included in a photo slide show that will be shared with legislators and their staff to begin to show the full impact blood cancers are having on their community.

Video Vignettes

Advocates who would like to take sharing their story a step beyond a photo and text can participate in LLS’s new video vignette campaign. The video project allows volunteers to share your voice and your story in your surroundings.

There are several ways your video may be used. It could be sent to your legislator's office to share your story of how cancer has affected you and your family. It could be used as a tool to recruit new blood cancer advocates. Or it could be used to educate other volunteers on the benefits and ease of being an advocate for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

We need to remind our elected officials that they are in office to represent the people back home in their state or district facing real problems. Help us by sharing your story now!
