Thank you for your interest in becoming a 2010 Light The Night Walk volunteer!


Light The Night could not be possible without the hundreds of volunteers that donate their time and energy. We greatly appreciate our brave volunteers who came out to weather rain in 2009!  Without your help, we would not have been able to exceed our goal of $2.4 million - a first in New York City. 

2010 Volunteer Opportunities with Light The Night:

Before Walks:

  • Corporate Volunteer Days: We will arrange a day for you and your co-workers to help with projects in our office and learn more about our mission.
