This is a secure donation page managed by the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society for Light The Night.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light The Night Walk is an annual evening event held across communities in the United States and Canada, usually in the fall. Participants honor loved ones and raise funds for lifesaving research and patient programs by carrying illuminated balloons. These walks bring hope, awareness, and much-needed support to people and families affected by blood cancers.
We walked in memory of Robyn Mantilia-Timmes and in honor of Joe Hill and Caleb Hall. Each year we join this special event to remember, to celebrate survivors, and to help fund research that moves us closer to a cure.
Here are a few favorite photos from last year’s walk:
I also created small crafts and thank-you bags for supporters and volunteers. One of the items I made is a paper slider — a simple, heartfelt gift that adds a personal touch to our appreciation packages. If you enjoy paper crafting, there are many tutorials available that demonstrate how to make sliders and other interactive cards.
We will be walking again this year. Your support — whether through joining the walk, volunteering, or donating — makes a meaningful difference for patients and families affected by leukemia and lymphoma. Thank you for helping us support research, patient services, and hope for a cure.
