My Fundraising Page

Welcome to my Light The Night Walk homepage!

Last year, I joined a team called Jack’s Mannequin and walked 2 miles around Angel Stadium in Anaheim, CA. I personally raised a total of $170.27 (my goal was to raise at least $100) and the overall amount our team raised was over $30,000.00!

This year, I am in the same team, but joined the Riverside team & became a team captain. The Riverside walk is taking place on Saturday, October 16, 2010 at Cal Baptist University in Riverside, CA. I would really like to reach my personal & team goal. So please, donate any small or big amount! Or join my team, help fundraise, and walk for a great cause!

Thank you!

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.

Please make a donation to support my participation in the Light The Night Walk and help save lives. Be sure to check my Web site frequently to see my progress, and thanks for your support!
