Welcome
to our web site! |
The
Lymphedema Association of Quebec is a charitable
organization founded in 1999 to provide education,
awareness, and support to those with lymphedema,
and to encourage research leading to effective
treatments and eventually a cure.
A
small group of volunteers ensure that the LAQ
continues to reach its objectives, however the
slope is steep, the challenges numerous. Your
generosity through donations and willingness to
volunteer is needed and greatly appreciated.
