UFCW Leukemia Research Fundraising

The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada (formerly the Leukemia Research Fund of Canada) was adopted as the charity of choice for UFCW Canada over 17 years ago. In that time, UFCW members have raised over $6,000,000 for the fund. Members all across Canada put on events such as walk-a-thons, barbeques, hockey, pool, steak nights, and golf tournaments to raise funds for Leukemia. If you have a suggestion for a fundraiser, or just want to help, contact your Union Representative and help make a difference!
