THE LEUKEMIA & LYMPHOMA SOCIETY (LLS)
When The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was founded in 1949, leukemia patients were given a relative five-
year survival rate. In the past 49 years, the survival rate has nearly quadrupled and Hodgkin lymphoma is now
considered one of the most curable forms of cancer, thanks to radiation and chemotherapy. LLS has been
developing new initiatives that have strengthened our role as the leading private funder of blood cancer
research and provider of programs for the one million Americans living with a blood cancer and their families.
LLS relies heavily on the generosity of contributions and sponsorships from corporations, community partners,
privately-owned businesses, private foundations, donors, as well as individuals and families. With the funds
raised, the Delaware Chapter of LLS can continue to support local groundbreaking research, clinical trials and
provide cancer patients and their families with critical services.
MAN & WOMAN OF THE YEAR ABOUT THE CAMPAIGN: Man & Woman of the Year is a national campaign in which dynamic,
passionate people engage in a spirited competition to raise funds for LLS. The man and woman who raise the
most funds are named the Man & Woman of the Year.
The amounts raised are top secret and are not disclosed until the local Man & Woman of the Year are
announced at a Grand Finale Celebration. The competition is 10 weeks long, beginning at the Kickoff on March
31, 2016 and ending at the Grand Finale Celebration on June 11, 2016 at The DoubleTree Hotel—Downtown
Wilmington.
In 2015, candidates nationwide collectively raised more than $32 million for blood cancer research and patient
services. The first Delaware event was held in 2010 and raised $87,000 in its inaugural year. In 2015, the
campaign’s sixth year in the Delaware market, the candidates raised $303,000! In 2016, the Delaware chapter
hopes to see $400,000 raised for life-saving research and to improve the quality of life for blood cancer patients
and their families.
SPONSORSHIP BENEFITS: Man & Woman of the Year offers the opportunity for businesses to support
a great cause and enhance its image of public consciousness and concern in the community. Forging a
partnership with LLS provides tremendous potential for publicity for the winning candidates and their sponsors
by means of press releases, exposure in print advertisements, and local recognition. Additionally, sponsors gain
the opportunity to build strong rapport with their customers and prospective patrons.
Sponsors, candidates, campaign teams, friends, families, survivors, and other LLS supporters will gather for the
announcement of the Man & Woman of the Year at the Grand Finale Celebration. Attendance is expected to
exceed 400 people, which offers an incredible outlet for brand promotion, company recognition, and interaction
with local LLS supporters.
By selecting a highly-customized and exclusive sponsorship package, or one of the pre-defined options, your
company brand will be associated with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s mission and the world’s largest
voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer research and providing education and patient
services.
