Frustrated by the lack of effective treatments for what was then a hopeless disease, parents Rudolph and Antoinette de Villiers started a fundraising and education organization. Driven by the de Villiers's nearly boundless belief that leukemia was indeed curable, the foundation grew steadily, opening its first offices in the New York City area. Today, LLS, a 501(c)(3) organization, is the largest not-for-profit health agency dedicated to finding cures and better treatments for people with blood cancer, funding cutting-edge research worldwide to advance breakthrough therapies and bring them to more patients faster.
