Chief Executive Officer, C-Change
Elizabeth Thompson, is well known for her collaborative work in the cancer
space. While her work and contributions to change the research, political and
patient support landscapes stand on their own merits, she is quick to highlight

accomplishments because of the tremendous efforts of thoughtful and generous
board members, brilliant staff, and engaged and committed volunteers to make
an extraordinary difference in the lives of those diagnosed with and living with
cancer in 50 countries around the world.

responsible for setting strategy and execution of the organization's $450M investment in mission programs
spanning research, advocacy and policy, community health and education, and global health. Her ability to get

CEO to work with the Board, staff and volunteers to re-think and re-energize the Lymphoma Research
Foundation, evolving their grassroots base and developing a more dynamic and integrated program offering.
Today, as the CEO of C-Change, a member-driven organization focused on strategic issues in cancer, convening
