I've volunteered at the Chike Springer Foundation regularly over the last year, and the founder and president, Lyndsay, is a fantastic person to work with. She started this foundation in honor of her late husband, Chike Springer, and in less than 2 years, she had the Chike Springer Foundation funding a full year of research for a doctor focused on lymphoma in Latin America and outcome disparities for people of color. Everyone involved in the organization is passionate about their mission to improve lymphoma treatment outcomes and increase diversity in cancer research, and it has been rewarding to see the organization make progress and to be a part of that growth.
