Welcome to our personal Man & Woman of the Year campaign page!

We are proud to announce our partnership with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. We chose to partner with a great organization to raise awareness and shine light on a very important topic--Blood Cancer. Cancer has effected, in some way, the majority of the population across the globe including our very own Eastern Shore. We are aware of the need to help everyone become aware as well. This year we would like to battle cancer at the molecular level all while having some fun and raising money for treatments and research.

 

Each year, in communities across the country, candidates engage in a spirited competition to earn The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's "Man & Woman of the Year" titles by raising funds for blood cancer research and patient services. Candidates compete in honor of local children who are blood cancer survivors, the Boy & Girl of the year. Every dollar raised counts as one vote, and the titles are awarded to the man and woman with the most votes at the end of ten weeks; the top local fundraisers in the country win the national titles. Candidates and teams will raise money for blood cancer research during a ten week campaign period. The ten weeks of fundraising kick off March 31st and culminate with a Grand Finale Gala celebration for all of the candidates and participants on June 10th. 

Subaru's Love Promise to do right by our community and partners is held true in everything we do. That's why we have taken an oath to become the first advocate for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Maryland Eastern Shore Chapter in our county and region! In the interest of our community, and because we genuinely care for each of our customers and friends, we want to raise awareness and raise funds for such vital research like LLS. Although we are great we know we can't complete such an important mission on our own. So we recruited the best people we could think of for the job, Captain Willie and Andrew from Outdoors Delmarva!! It is our hope that you will consider donating to either of our teams to benefit the larger goal of funding CURES for cancer.

Whether you are participating through a monetary vote to a Team, buying a fan shirt, or purchasing a gala ticket; every dollar counts in the life of someone living with cancer. Although Andrew and Willie have now turned it into a little friendly competition we cannot forget why we started. In the spirit of the rivalry, "May the best Team win!" 
Choose the Team you would like to support below and follow the link to their individual donation page to donate. Please know that your participation and support is profoundly appreciated and makes a genuine difference to patients and their families. Anything you can provide will be helpful, and all donations are tax deductible.

What is LLS and why is this campaign so important?

Last year, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society funded over $90 million in blood research. They are currently able to fund 9 researchers right here in Maryland and 28 projects throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. In addition to the research, they offer First Connection (a peer-to-peer support program), financial assistance to patients through the Patient Aid Program; family support groups: and an advocacy network for patients and their families in our very own region.

LLS continues to see tremendous progress in the way blood cancers are treated, including drug targeted therapy. The reason for the growth of our campaign and the improved treatments is the same; is is the exceptional support of caring community supporters through this campaign. The campaign also generates awareness both locally and nationally through press releases and exposure in print advertisements. 

How are your dollars used:

To date LLS has invested over $1 billion to advance cancer therapies and save lives. They promise to continue to support research through our innovative and integrated funding programs, until every patient has a safe and effective therapy.

RESEARCH: Last year alone, LLS invested $67.2 million in cutting-edge research. LLS currently has research commitments of $3.16 million in Maryland.

PATIENT SERVICES: LLS provides a range of services, including family support groups, an extensive educational website, free seminars and conferences, and co-pay assistance.

EDUCATION: LLS serves as the world's foremost source of information on blood cancers, with resources including an Information Resource Center, (800) 955-4572, an extensive collection of free educational materials, professional education and award-winning website.

ADVOCACY: LLS's advocacy program has a strong voice in Washington, DC representing the healthcare and medical research interests of patients and their families to policy makers at all levels of government.
