BRINGING HOPE TO LYMPHEDEMA PATIENTS

In the last decade, the Lymphedema Foundation of South Florida gave more than 400 cancer victims who also suffered from lymphedema new chances to enjoy life. 

Join our cause and contribute to the opportunities to extend the lives of cancer patients with lymphedema.
