Welcome to Kerrigan's Krusader's Light The Night Walk homepage. Continue the "Fight Back with 5!"
The Man & Woman of the Year Campaign was a huge success, thanks to you! We reached our goal to get a research grant named after my partner, Steve Kerrigan, and he remains in remission from multiple myeloma, but we need to continue to fight back!
Join us Thursday, October 1st, (registration at 5:30pm) for the Light The Night Walk at Fraze Pavillion in Kettering. It's the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's evening walk and fundraising event---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. 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 for folks just like Kerrigan. Here's how you can help!
- 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.
Any amount will help us get that much closer to finding a cure for blood cancer forever! Join Kerrigan's Krusaders and "fight back!"
