Mission

The Lymphoma Research Foundation (LRF) is the nation's largest lymphoma-focused voluntary health organization devoted exclusively to funding lymphoma research and providing patients and healthcare professionals with critical information on the disease. LRF's mission is to eradicate lymphoma and serve those touched by the disease. To date, LRF has funded more than $34.7 million in research for non-Hodgkin and Hodgkin lymphomas. LRF was formed in November 2001 by the merger of the Cure for Lymphoma Foundation (CFL) and the Lymphoma Research Foundation of America (LRFA). CFL and LRFA were both founded by lymphoma advocates who sought to turn life changing diagnoses into a positive experience for others with the disease.
