The
Violet Ribbon Campaign (VRC) is working to create a support community
for those affected by Hodgkin's Lymphoma by uniting patients,
families, caregivers, friends, medical professionals, and
communities. Established in Sept. 2001, VRC was the vision of a Hodgkin's patient
that no one affected by this disease should feel alone or unsupported
through this very sensitive time in their lives.

VRC
hopes to unite the community in support of Hodgkin's patients and
their loved ones through the distribution of Violet Ribbons. The
Campaign's mission is that through the united bond of the Violet
Ribbon they will create communication, increase activism, and help
fight for improved quality of life.
Proceeds
from all donations go to research and support programs that directly
benefit Hodgkin's patients and their loved ones.
