Welcome to the Aerys Sports National Team Homepage

Welcome!


Aerys Sports, the only online sports network run entirely by women, was launched in February of 2011. In our first year of existence, we have chosen to team up with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society through their annual Light The Night Walk.


The Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's evening walk and fundraising event to pay tribute and bring hope to people battling cancer. Thousands of participants raise funds for vital, lifesaving research and patient services and, on these special nights, they carry illuminated balloons in a show of support from a caring community.


The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) funds lifesaving research that has contributed to major advances in the treatment of blood cancers and treatments for other types of cancer, such as chemotherapy and stem cell transplants. New targeted therapies that kill cancer cells without harming normal tissue are providing drugs and procedures that are improving quality of life.


This year, we will be forming a national fundraising walk team for LLS’s Light The Night Walk. Please join our national Aerys Sports team today by registering for a local team below (select join) or, to start a new team in your area, click here.


All walkers are encouraged to become Champions For Cures by raising $100 or more to help fight blood cancer. Walkers who raise $100 or more will receive night of walk benefits including:

  • Light The Night t-shirt
  • Light The Night balloon
  • Wristband which entitles the walker to food and refreshments

You can also make a donation to support our national participation by selecting a team member from the list on the right and help save lives. Be sure to check our Web site frequently to see our progress. Thanks for your support!
