My Fundraising Page

Welcome to My Light The Night Walk homepage!!

Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) evening walk and fundraising event (our walk is in Raleigh on Oct 9th). 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. LLS funds lifesaving research that contributes 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.

How your donation can help:

• A donation of $25 provides patients and their loved ones with up-to-date information on their disease and helps 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.

Please make ANY donation you can to support my participation in the Light The Night Walk and help save lives. I know that times are very trying in the world, so please, only donate if you can.

Love,

Rachelle
