Who we are
We are Blood Cancer United, and we believe everyone with blood cancer deserves a longer, better life.
That’s why we are on a mission to cure blood cancer and improve the quality of life of all patients and their families. How? We fund life-saving blood cancer research around the world, provide free information and support services for patients and their families, and are the voice for those seeking access to quality, affordable, coordinated care.
With your help, we have invested more than $1.8 billion in groundbreaking research supporting many of today’s most innovative approaches to treatment—helping those with blood cancer not only survive but also thrive.
Our organizational strategy: Extending and improving lives
Since we began in 1949, we’ve made tremendous strides for the blood cancer community. Some blood cancers can now be cured, and others can be managed as long-term chronic conditions. So, we measure our progress not just by cures, but by all the people who can live longer, more active lives after a blood cancer diagnosis.
We do this by:
- Looking for the new ideas, funding the science, and bringing together the necessary elements, experts, and innovations to help accelerate progress
- Protecting access to high-quality, affordable health coverage and funding for vital research into new, better treatments
- Providing support to new and existing patients, survivors, caregivers, and healthcare professionals
- Developing and implementing novel programmatic and research efforts that focus on survivorship, caregiving, clinical trials, equitable access to care, and quality of life
