The Canadian Lymphoma Foundation was founded in 1998 by Deborah Sterritt in Toronto.
Deborah was diagnosed with an indolent form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in 1995. In early 1998 Deb also discovered that no group existed in Canada which could provide patients with the information they needed. With the help of Dr. Zanke, Terry Creighton and Jane Mingay, she founded the Canadian Lymphoma Foundation (CLF).
The two organizations merged in 2000. Both LRFC and CLF recognized the need for a strong, national organization in order to benefit lymphoma patients throughout Canada. As a result, the two foundations joined in 2000, forming Lymphoma Foundation Canada. The goal of LFC continues to focus on lymphoma research, education and awareness in Canada. Terry Creighton sat as Vice Chair, Board of Directors and Chair of the Fundraising Committee, Dr. Joseph Connors became Chair of the Scientific Advisory Board and Dr. Brent Zanke held a seat on the Scientific Advisory Board.

Lymphoma is the fifth most common cancer in Canada and one of the fastest rising incidence rates worldwide. In 2011, an estimated 8,600 Canadians will be diagnosed with lymphoma and in 2011, 3,310 succumbed to the disease. Lymphoma affects men, women and children and incidence is on the rise in young adults and children. It is a type of blood cancer that develops when an error occurs in the production of lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell found in the lymph nodes, and results in abnormal cells that become cancerous.
