Leukemia Cup

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's ^SM is a thrilling series of sailing events that combines the joy of boating with the important task of raising money to cure cancer. Since its inception, the Leukemia Cup Regatta has raised millions of dollars for lifesaving research and patient services, bringing help and hope to patients and their families.

At events held at yacht clubs across North America, skippers register their boats and recruit friends and colleagues to help crew and to raise funds. Crew members seek donations from friends, family, co-workers and employers to sponsor their boat. National and local event sponsors also support the Leukemia Cup Regatta

Anyone with an interest in regattas and a passion about raising funds to cure cancer can participate. Participants include sailboat enthusiasts - skippers and sailors - and spectators who like to watch from shore and cheer the sailors on.

Poker runs are available in some areas, and junior regattas are held by many of the yacht clubs that host the Regatta. Check with your local chapter to see if these events are available in your area.

You can also volunteer to help with planning or on event day; donate to a participant's fundraising; or your company can become a Regatta sponsor.
