           Be a Part of the Cure!  Sponsor the Minnesota Light The Night Walk

Your company can make a difference! The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is the world's largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding critical blood cancer research. Partnering with the Minnesota Light The Night Walk is an opportunity to not only show your support for the community, but receive great marketing exposure, targeting responsive audiences throughout Minnesota. This evening walk is held each fall and delivers a wide spectrum of participants.  With this year's Walk being held at Target Field, our corporate partners are receiving increased exposure. 

Your sponsorship is crucial in our relentless search for a cure. LLS is proud to put 76 percent of donations back into our mission to: Cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. Last year, 602 local patients received financial reimbursement and nearly 700 benefited from education programs provided by the Minnesota Chapter. We could not provide these services without your generous support!

Thanks to our 2012 Local Walk Sponsors

Retail Partnership Opportunities

If your company has multiple locations or a lot of foot traffic, then paper balloon sales is right for you! Retail partnership opportunities provide an opportunity to become a major contributor in the fight against all blood cancers and positions your company as a caring corporation committed to the The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's mission. Here's how it works:
Stores sell Light The Night paper balloons during a four- to six-week period. Paper balloons can be sold to customers for a $1 donation.  Once purchased, paper balloons can be placed in highly visible areas such as storefront windows, walls, etc. to showcase your community involvement as well as increase awareness for the cause. 

Other retail programs are also available. If you are interested in a different type of partnership such as a "Round Up" campaign or "Give a Dollar, Save a Dollar" coupons let's talk!  Contact Pat Gale at (763) 852-3009 or Pat.Gale@LLS.org for more information on retail partnership opportunities.
