Thousands of Canadians living with myeloma are depending on it.
There are more Canadians living with myeloma than ever before, and the number is on the rise. Life spans in general have increased so more people are being diagnosed with this devastating disease. Thanks to important advances in diagnostics and treatment, those with myeloma are living longer and better lives. With a growing myeloma community, your generosity has never been more critical than it is right now.
You have the power to make myeloma matter.
Even though myeloma is the 2nd most common form of incurable blood cancer, it still remains relatively unknown. Sadly, this means that some people aren’t getting diagnosed as quickly as they could. And, typically faster diagnoses translate into better disease management, better outcomes, and improved quality of life for all those myeloma impacts.
Your charitable gift makes it possible for us to provide the essential services, tools, resources and programming that help Canadians impacted by myeloma better understand, manage and live with this very complex disease. Your support enables us to continue to advocate for, and invest in, vital myeloma research that will hopefully soon, result in a cure and save countless, precious lives.
You have the power to keep the momentum going.
March is Myeloma Awareness Month, and while we’ve all experienced disruptions in almost every facet of our lives this past year, cancer doesn’t stop for anyone, and neither do we. That’s why we’re appealing to you to join us in driving our mission forward.

For the 9 new Canadians diagnosed with myeloma every day, and the entire Canadian myeloma community, your gift represents hope, and so much more.
In 2009, at the age of 47, I was finally diagnosed with myeloma. It took about 4 years. At that time, average life expectancy was only 3 to 5 years.
Here I am, over 10 years later, and I want more. I don’t know of any other organization that’s done anything even close to what Myeloma Canada can. Supporting them is supporting all of us.
