Hello fellow Sportsmen
and Sportswomen,
Welcome to the DaHunt for the Cure Web site.
DaHunt for the Cure is a fun way to raise awareness of leukemia,
myeloma, lymphoma, and Hodgkin's disease, and in the process, we hope to help
raise funds for research of these blood cancers, and support The Leukemia &
Lymphoma Society®.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's mission is to cure leukemia,
lymphoma, myeloma, and Hodgkin's disease, and improve the quality of life of
patients and their families. The Society accomplishes these goals through a
variety of service programs. Please visit their Web site at
www.leukemia-lymphoma.org for more information.
DaHunt for the Cure began in 2008 by a group of sportsmen who
decided to host a unique event: a two-day upland bird hunt to raise money for
one of their favorite charities.
The idea was an immediate success. People were drawn to the
combination of the great outdoors, a little friendly competition, camaraderie
with fellow business professionals, and help children with their illnesses.
More importantly, the event will raise money for research and
help find cures, inspiring them to turn their simple idea into an ongoing fund
raising effort.
The inspiration for DaHunt for the Cure was born from the
personal way blood cancer has touched my life since my nephew, Peter, was
diagnosed with leukemia. We personally invite you to participate in this event,
in honor of Peter's ongoing recovery. This year's event also coincides with some
important milestones in Peter’s life. In addition to completing his chemotherapy
treatments, we will also be celebrating Peter's 16th birthday. We continue to
count the days until his doctors consider him completely cured!
