 Light the Night Edmonton |
TBA The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Prairie Region, Edmonton is preparing for our 5th Annual Light the Night Walk. Last year the Prairie Region in Edmonton raised $130,000 to fund research and provide patient services for those affected by a blood cancer in the Edmonton area.
Participation in this year’s Light The Night Walk will be a rewarding and valuable experience. On Saturday, September 24th, 2011, at 7 pm walkers will gather at Victoria Park for this unique twilight evening walk. Walkers carry illuminated balloons; red for supporters, white for survivors, and gold balloons in memory of a life lost to cancer. Each balloon has become a beacon of hope for the millions of people affected by blood cancers. It is truly a moving experience, a community coming together in support of finding cures.
Light the Night is the society’s largest annual fundraiser for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and takes place across Canada in the fall to assist our mission: To cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. Address: 12130 River Valley Road Edmonton AB
