Thank You for Making the IMF’s Blood Cancer Awareness Month a Success!

This Blood Cancer Month, we asked, “Do you #kNOw myeloma?” You responded by sharing graphics, statistics, and stories. Together, we have reached more than 25 million in 25 countries across the globe. We could not continue our mission of improving the quality of life of myeloma patients while working toward prevention and cure without the dedication of people like you. The IMF heartily congratulates and appreciates your work!

“With the development of so many new treatments over the past 20 years, patients can reimagine living with myeloma. That’s why it’s so important for the IMF to continue putting patients at the center of research, education, advocacy, and support. With all the recent developments in the IMF’s intense search for a cure, there is more hope than ever before.”
