The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is the largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding research, finding cures and ensuring access to treatments for blood cancer patients.

Since 1949 LLS has been on the forefront of blood cancer advances such as chemotherapies and stem cell transplantation leading the way to the targeted therapies and immunotherapies that are saving thousands of lives today.

LLS is changing the landscape of cancer with more than 300 active research projects that explore different avenues of new and adventurous research; ones with promise and ones that will save lives not someday, but today.

Whenever we talk about cancer, we always use the same word. Someday. Someday there will be a cure. Someday we won’t lose the people we love. But when is someday? With LLS’s research partnerships and collaborations with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, patients support services and advocates working for blood cancer patients everywhere, someday is today.

Pet Peeves

Pet Peeves, Inc., "the voice of L.I. Pets," is a 501C3, non profit umbrella organization that raises funds and awareness for Long Island’s struggling animal shelters and rescue groups.

They are a fundraising organization, funding those shelters, rescue groups and individuals who work on the front lines physically rescuing and caring for homeless and abused animals in need. Pet Peeves enables them to save the lives of abused, abandoned and unwanted animals. Funds go directly to their rescue, care and rehabilitation – not to administration, salaries or issues that do not directly impact the welfare of the animals.

Examples of funding for rescue:

• Spay neuter programs
• Low Cost and Free clinics
• Medical supplies
• Safe Haven Programs
• TNR Programs
• Food Pantries
