Lymphoma Research Foundation (LRF)
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 health care professionals with critical information on the disease. LRF's mission is to eradicate lymphoma and serve those touched by this disease.
The Lymphoma Research Foundation 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. The late Ellen Glesby Cohen, who lost her own battle with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August 2000, founded LRFA in Los Angeles in 1991. In 1994 CFL was founded by Jerry and Barbara Freundlich in New York City. Jerry is a 16-year survivor of non-Hodgkin lymphoma thanks to research and a chemotherapy protocol that cured him.
