The unwritten mission of the Leukemia Society is to go out of business – until then, leadership wants to communicate clearly what the Society does. When the organization was started it focused on raising money to fund research to find the cure for leukemia and grew to include other blood-related cancers. Despite its great progress against childhood leukemia, lymphoma has grown to become one of the leading cancers causing death. The Leukemia Society was dedicating a significant percentage of its research funding for lymphoma research and wanted to emphasize the disease’s importance and its role in seeking a cure.
The name change reflects this shift in focus without sacrificing the equity of the previous name. The positioning suggested that a more aggressive image than just typography was required to express the organization’s mission. A dynamic, accessible symbol was designed to represent the brand focus and to capture the cancers’ blood-related natures. A tagline was added to emphasize the organization’s positioning, one of action that connects the diseases as blood-related and speaks to them outright as cancers for the first time.

The above positioning statement was created to be used as an internal tool to maintain a consistent behavior and strategic focus throughout the organization and in external communications to project a relentless message. The idea of relentlessness captures the central idea, the driven quality that made possible the Society’s success over childhood leukemia - a determination, energy and belief that is at the core of its very being.
