Welcome to the Southern Florida Chapter's Light The Night Walk Page!
Light The Night is the nation's night to pay tribute and bring hope to people battling cancer. People form teams of friends and family or co-workers. They raise funds for cancer research and bring help and hope to people battling these terrible diseases. Participants carry illuminated twinkling balloons - white for survivors & patients, red for supporters, gold in memory of a life lost. More than a walk, the evening is a supportive community gathering that includes music, food and family activities.

Become a "Champion For Cures" - New for 2010!
Every Light The Night walker is encouraged to become a Champion For Cures by raising $100 or more to help people fighting cancer live better, longer lives. A Champion For Cures will receive night-of-walk benefits* including a:
- Light The Night t-shirt
- Light The Night illuminated balloon
- Wristband which entitles the walker to food and refreshments
- Access to Children's Village
Walkers who have raised less than $100 are welcome to attend and walk but do not receive a t-shirt, balloon or a wristband for food and refreshments.
How to become a Champion For Cures
Raising $100 is easy! Send your online fundraising webpage to 20 or more people and ask each person for a donation of $10 or more. Even if only half of the people donate $10 or more, you will have raised $100 and most likely more.
*All patients and survivors will receive these items regardless of their fundraising levels.
For more information please email Sheriann Namer at Sheriann.Namer@lls.org or call the Light The Night Walk office at (954) 744-5311.
