Dear Jack Foundation
a powerful voice in fight against young adult cancer
2010 marks the 5th anniversary of Andrew McMahon's leukemia going into remission. It's also the 5th year that Team Jack's Mannequin is participating in Light The Night! For the 3rd year running, our goal is to raise over $100,000 nationwide. We hope you will join us by registering as a member of Team JM and becoming a Champion For Cures by raising $100 or more.
Our team's goal is the same as the goal of Andrew's Dear Jack Foundation: to help raise awareness about blood cancers and to help find much-needed treatments for young adults who are fighting blood cancers.
Have questions about the team? E-mail us at LTN.TeamJM@gmail.com and follow our team's Twitter for the latest updates.

Welcome to my Light The Night Walk homepage.
Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's evening walk and fundraising event. It is the nation's night to pay tribute and bring hope to thousands of people battling blood cancers and to commemorate loved ones lost.
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.
In fact, in 2009 alone, LLS researchers were conducting more than 90 clinical trials, a critical step in the development of new treatments and cures that will help patients live better, longer lives.
- A donation of $25 provides patients and their loved ones with FREE booklets that contain up-to-date information on their disease and help them make informed decisions about their treatment options.
- A donation of $50 makes possible a Family Support group with a trained facilitator where comfort can be found and experiences can be shared among patients and family members.
- A donation of $100 helps supply laboratory researchers with supplies and materials critical to carrying out their search for cures.
- A donation of $1,000 makes possible one- on-one conversations with health care specialists who provide patients with information about their disease, treatment options, and helps prepare them with questions for their health care team.
