Our History
It all began in 1995 with the Foundation’s co-founders, Barbara and Jerry Freundlich. Inspired by their own experience with lymphoma, the Freundlichs realized the need for a lymphoma-specific organization dedicated to advancing research and supporting those impacted by the disease. They set out to build something transformative—a community united by hope, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to a future free from lymphoma.
