Our Story
The Light The NightŪ Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's nationwide evening walk. Walkers carry illuminated balloons to celebrate and commemorate the lives touched by cancer. Funds raised will support our mission to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma - and to improve the quality of life of patients and their families.

Against a twilight sky, a parade of flickering red and white balloons winds through communities, creating a breathtaking sight and a spirit of camaraderie among all who carry them.

Participants in Light the Night walks raise funds in support of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's mission. Participants raising or more carry illuminated red balloons. Cancer survivors will carry illuminated white balloons. Dedication Banners designed to celebrate and commemorate those touched by cancer give participants a chance to personalize their efforts and honor friends and loved ones. T-shirts and other Light The Night rewards are provided to recognize participant fundraising. A post-walk celebration includes refreshments, music and family festivity.

Your participation will help save lives. Please join us in our fight against blood-related cancers, as we Light The Night with hope and raise funds to find a cure.

Anyone can participate. Children, adults, and seniors are all welcome. This is a casual walk with no fitness requirements.
