Support Lymphedema Patients on Giving Tuesday!

by Heather on November 24, 2015

Giving Tuesday kicks off the charitable season!

‘Tis the season for giving, and we hope you will remember the Lymphedema Advocacy Group when making your end-of-the-year donations.

For the first time, we are participating in Giving Tuesday. All money raised will go towards our 2016 Lymphedema Lobby Days. Our Giving Tuesday goal is to raise $2000, which will help further our advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill and beyond.

Highlights of our accomplishments this year include:

  • Reintroduction of the Lymphedema Treatment Act by an ideally positioned bipartisan sponsorship team.
  • Distribution of over 200,000 free information cards, to spread awareness about lymphedema and the LTA.
  • Production of a wildly popular Lymphedema Infographic and a Public Service Announcement video.
  • Enabling individuals to send thousands of messages to Congress using the advocacy tools on our website.
  • Production and presentation of free Lymphedema Advocacy Training webinars.
  • Formation of grassroots Advocacy Teams in all 50 states.
  • Garnering of over 160 cosponsors, more than in any past Congress and a very impressive amount for any bill!

Donations can be made via check, through PayPal (no PayPal account needed, only a credit or debit card) or through a new giving tool called Good World. Good World allows you to donate without leaving social media. You can learn more about GoodWorld and register in advance at: https://goodworld.me/social-login/connect?

Thank you in advance and I hope you and your loved ones have a very Happy Thanksgiving!
