Welcome to our Light The Night Walk
homepage. We are walking to show our support for Bill Turnbull, Dad, Husband, Son, Brother, Friend.
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. 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.
Please make a donation to support my team's participation in the Light
The Night Walk and help save lives. Be sure to check my team's Web site
frequently to see my team's progress, and thanks for your support!
