Picture Perfect

A picture is worth a thousand words. Shake it like a Polaroid picture. I’ll tag you.

However you say it, sing it, or post it- we like it and want it.

It’s time to show the web what you’ve been up to for the past months. Do you have pictures from fundraisers or team outtings? Awesome. Pictures from the walk? GREAT! With your support, we are continuing to climb our way towards the dollar signs we need to reach our 2009 goal. The more picture we can share and circulate, the higher chance you can help us get the word out about Light The Night and reach that goal for this year. Plus, how fun would it be to compare walk sites, fundraisers, and see if you happen to be in the background of another team’s pictures!

If you have pictures please send them to Kiley.Borowski@lls.org and they will be shared on our blog or Facebook group. Remember, we can still improve the quality of life for thousands of individuals and their families. So, keep fundraising and send those pictures on in!

‘Til next time friends- Just keep Swimming, just keep swimming….

Let It Rock.

$1.7 million statewide. You did it GEORGIA! That’s not too shabby I must say. It’s not quite our goal though. So we need you to rock it out. You got this far… how far can you get until December when your donations pages expire and we begin kicking butt for next year? You may say that I ask a lot. False. Think about the 912,938 people who have or survived blood cancer in the US. Plus, I wouldn’t ask you if a) I knew you couldn’t do it (cause you can.. duh) or b) I couldn’t offer some more incredible incentives.. The incentives are below, and remember, while our Walks in Georgia may be over, there are still patients and families in need. Below you will also find an awesome letter composed by one of our very own Campaign Coordinators to continue the success and accomplishments in Georgia.

You can do it Georgia. Let It Rock.

Incredible incentives.
$100 Raised Online = you will get a free movie pass

$200 Raised Online = 2 movie passes and snack counter gift card


Campaign Letter To Continue Fundraising:

I had a great time at the Light The Night Walk. The evening was beautiful! For one night, hope for hundreds of thousands of cancer patients was shining brightly in red, white and gold balloons.

Excitement is high and heads are spinning with last minute fund raising, packing and planning. (My cube may look like a hurricane came through, but no worries...
