Innovating
With the generosity of our donors, we will finally be able to create a unique cell bank that will enable us to identify and characterize myeloma genetic predispositions. An absolute first in Quebec and Canada!
Extending life
Until recently, the usual survival of people with multiple myeloma was 3 to 4 years. In recent years, it has grown to more than six years. Thanks to the donations of people as caring as you, we will be able to improve the chances of survival of those affected.
Many thanks to all our generous partners, sponsors and donors. Your involvement and your moral and financial support are greatly appreciated and we are very grateful.
