Do you live in BC? Do you shop at Thrifty Foods?

If you answered yes to these questions, then you can help empower newly diagnosed myeloma patients across the country on the management and treatment of their disease to improve overall outcomes, and it won’t cost you a penny. Myeloma Canada offers several educational resource guides designed to advance the understanding, treatment and management of myeloma. Our educational material is distributed through hospital libraries, myeloma clinics, support groups, educational and awareness events as well as directly to patients and caregivers.   Did you know? Each year, over 10,000 Handbooks and InfoGuides are printed and distributed across the country, and the average cost of delivering an education package to a newly diagnosed patient is $35.
