MYELOMA ALBERTA SUPPORT SOCIETY
WELCOME TO MYELOMA ALBERTA SUPPORT SOCIETY
We are a non-profit charitable organization formed and run by people living with myeloma and their supporters. Our purpose is to provide support to people living with myeloma, their caregivers, family and friends, as they deal with diagnosis and treatment.
We organize monthly meetings as well as educational events which provide fellowship, peer support, and information for all of us sharing a similar cancer experience.
UPCOMING MEETINGS
Our next Support Group meeting will be on Saturday October 5th, 2024 at Holy Spirit Lutheran Church.
MULTIPLE MILES FOR MYELOMA 2024
Thank you to everyone who supported 2024 Multiple Miles for Myeloma. Congratulations to the 245 participants, 45 volunteers, and many friends and family members who made the event a success. Our generous sponsors included Riverbend Cobs Bread, Coronation Dental, Namao Dairy Queen, Angus Watt Enterprises with National Bank Financial, Kensington H&W Produce, R&D Trailer Rentals, Western Moving & Storage, Whyte Communications, Eh! Royal Flush Toilets, Running Room and University of Alberta, who provided both financial support and goods so that 100% of the money raised will be donated to research at the Cross Cancer Institute. Together we achieved raising $79,200.00, which will result in a positive impact for patients in the Multiple Myeloma community.
