We would like to extend our gracious thanks to the numerous individuals who have donated their time, ideas, and generous gifts-in-kind to champion the LRF cause. Their hours of dedication have been essential to the launch of our organization and to its ensuing success. Our volunteers are involved in all facets of our mission and are critical to the realization of our goals. Without the charitable spirit and commitment of LRF's volunteers, the Foundation could not have progressed as effectively.

Loyal friends of the Foundation have helped in various ways to ensure the successful administration and operation of LRF. Moreover, many have provided significant support and in-kind donations for our relocation to Glen Cove, NY.

Reaching out to patients, donors, researchers and medical practitioners is essential to LRF's existence, growth and success. Teams of talented individuals have created and gifted a host of promotional materials, including brochures, flyers, our video, A Call to Action, and website design and hosting for www.lymphaticresearch.org

Creative thinking, along with many hours of detailed preparation and personal interaction have enabled our community volunteers to organize a host of different local fundraising activities across the nation, such as concerts, garage sales, customer in-store butterfly hang-ups, car washes, bike-a-thons, autographing book, galas, tennis tournaments, and other very special "special events".
