Students Raise Money for Lymphoma While Competing for Scholarship Prize

Their website as a patient portal

“Our website is lls.org. Again, first and foremost, it’s a portal for patients. We actually have embedded in the website a patient community where patients can connect with one another and connect with LLS. And through that patient community, we share, in real time, the most relevant and pertinent information for patients and caregivers about the disease that they are grappling with. Of course, you can also find the information about our fundraising campaigns, Team In Training, Light the Night…a novel, innovative program called ‘Man and Woman Of The Year.’ If individuals are interested in supporting the efforts of The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society to fight cancer, I’d encourage them to go there and learn more,” said Dr. DeGennaro.
