Each year, thousands join forces with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Light The Night Walk, to bring help & hope to people battling blood cancers. Carrying illuminated balloons, walkers form a community of caring, bringing light to the dark world of cancer. The LTN events are filled with inspiration; we are proud to bring you the contagious words of encouragement & accomplishments from our walkers & advice from LLS to help brighten the Light The Night walks in GA.

*Ask a local restaurant to donate a portion of their evening proceeds to your team.. you'd be surprised how willing and excited they are to participate... trust me, I just did it! :)
*Have a garage sale! Get rid of all that clutter now that the kids are back in school AND have their new supplies. Sell paper balloons along with all your clothes, toys, furniture and whatever else isn't nailed down in your house!
*Ask your office to brown bag it for a week or just one day and donate the money they would normally use for grub to your LTN team. You could even bring out blankets and make it an indoor picnic! (Send us pictures if you do that, please!!)

'Til next time my lovely walkers, keep on truckin!
