More than 300 attendees gather each year, dancing to music from The Accents Band, at the National Museum of Dance to support this worthy cause. In the past three years, A Purple Tie Affair has provided more than $30,000 to both national and local cancer efforts. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (dedicated to national and local cancer support and treatments for the leading form of cancer among children) and Nick s Fight to be Healed Foundation (financially and emotionally supporting local children fighting cancer with services that have a positive and direct impact). A Purple Tie Affair is also intended to inform interested companies about a 3-month team-building experience through participation in the LLS Team in Training sports endurance program. Through Team in Training, individuals or company teams choose from a training program and event for walkers, runners, cyclists, hikers, and triathletes. Team in Training is designed for both non-athletes and athletes, with a focus on team building, team spirit, health and wellness. It s a 3-month training/fundraising experience, culminating with a keystone event that you and/or your colleagues will benefit from for years to come. All proceeds from Team in Training also benefit the fight against blood cancers.

5 Team in Training TNT is the world s largest and most successful endurance sports training program that raises funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. It started in New York City in 1988, when founder Bruce Cleland rallied a team of friends and family to run the NYC Marathon in support of his daughter, who had been diagnosed with leukemia. Bruce s group, who dubbed themselves Team In Training, raised $320,000 for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society that year. Today, over 540,000 participants have completed a marathon, half marathon, triathlon, or cycling event and have raised over $1.4 billion for our mission. Our participants range from beginners to seasoned athletes who all have a common goal: get motivated by the mission, get in shape, and get the experience of a lifetime completing an endurance event! In exchange for the program s benefits, participants will raise funds for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Team in Training Events: Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend January 4-8 Walt Disney World, FL Chevron Houston Marathon & Aramco Half Marathon January 15 Houston, TX Rock n Roll New Orleans Marathon & 1/2 Marathon February 5 New Orleans, LA Los Angeles Marathon March 19, Los Angeles, CA New York City Half Marathon March 19 New York City, NY Lavaman Triathlon April 2 Waikoloa, HI Boston Marathon April 17 Boston, MA Virgin Money London Marathon April 23 London Rock n Roll Nashville April 29 Nashville, TN New Jersey Half & Full Marathon April Oceanport, NJ Wildflower Triathlon May 6-7 Lake San Antonio, CA Volkswagen Prague Marathon May 6-7 Czech Republic Tinker Bell Half Marathon Weekend May 14 Disneyland Resort, CA Campagnolo Gran Fondo May 21 New York Traverse City Bayshore Marathon & Half May 27 Traverse City, MI America s Most Beautiful Bike Ride June 4 Lake Tahoe, NV Rock n Roll San Diego June 4 San Diego, CA Hike Yosemite June 10 Yosemite Park, CA Anchorage Mayor s Marathon & Half June 17 Anchorage, AK Rock n Roll Seattle June 18 Seattle, WA Pacific Grove Triathlon June Pacific Grove, CA

6 The mission of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin s disease and myeloma; to improve the quality of life of patients and their families. LLS is the world s largest voluntary health agency dedicated to blood cancer. LLS funds lifesaving blood cancer research around the world and provides free information and support services. Our Key Priorities will ensure that the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society helps blood cancer patients live better, longer lives. Through research, patient services, public professional education; and advocacy, we are able to give the communities within our Upstate New York/Vermont chapter the support, resources, and public voice that will lead to a cure not someday, but today. As a nonprofit we rely on the generosity of individuals, corporations and foundations. The money that the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) raises is used exclusively to fund our mission and the vital need to find a cure for blood cancers. There is a constant demand for additional funds to assist patients and their families who are currently going through treatment. In addition, the dramatic progress and forward momentum that LLS continues to achieve year-after-year is made possible through the support provided from individuals like you. The need for additional funds is critical. An estimated 1,012,522 people in the United States are living with, or are in remission from leukemia, Hodgkin lymphoma, non-hodgkin lymphoma or myeloma. Approximately every four minutes, someone new is diagnosed with blood cancer. Approximately every 10 minutes, someone dies. Leukemia causes more deaths than any other cancer among children, adolescents and young adults under the age of 20. Lymphomas are the most common blood cancers and incidence increases with age. The survival rate for myeloma is only 41.1 percent. LLS is striving to improve these statistics. Nick s Fight to be Healed Foundation The mission of Nick s Fight to be Healed Foundation is to support pediatric cancer patients as well as serve the young adult cancer community. We strive to improve quality of life by promoting well-being, reducing stress within the entire family, and providing resources to help children with cancer lead fun and fulfilling lives. This foundation reflects Nick s values and personality. By helping other patients with cancer, his spirit lives on.
