Welcome the Light The Night Walk homepage for Team Savvy Skirts.

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.

Team Savvy Skirts is participating in the Walk again this year in memory of our dear girlfriend Vicki Meier Oberleitner who lost the battle with lymphoma in 2003. We also want to honor our friends & family members who are survivors, as well as all individuals who are currently battling blood cancers.

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. These treatments have helped patients live better, longer lives. New targeted therapies that kill cancer cells without harming normal tissue are providing drugs and procedures that are improving quality of life.

• 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.

Grab your girlfriends & family (kids & wagons too!) and walk with us this year to commemorate, patients, survivors, lost loved ones and other families struggling to understand this disease. If you cannot join us this year, please make a donation to support our annual participation in the Light The Night Walk and help save lives. Be sure to check our Web site frequently to see our progress.

From all of us at Savvy Skirts, thank you for your continued support.

We miss you, Vicki.......but your smile will always live on!
