The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Light The Night Walk

Light The Night Walk is an annual fundraising event that supports The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's lifesaving cancer research and free support services for patients and their families. It is an inspiring evening to celebrate, remember, and bring hope to people battling cancer.

Leading up to the Light The Night Walk participants fundraise with their team, made up of friends, family, sports teams, clubs, and co-workers. 

There is no minimum fundraising, but participants who raise $100 or more become a Champion for Cures and on walk night receive: a balloon, t-shirt, and dinner.  

The illuminated balloons are red for supporters, white for survivors, and gold for those walking in memory of a loved one.
*All Cancer survivors in attendance are our honored guests and will receive a t-shirt, illuminated balloon, and dinner at the Walk regardless of their fundraising level.

Event Details: 

-Non-competitive 2-mile walk route is accessible to all fitness levels.
