Light The Night is the Society’s annual evening fundraiser walk where walkers carry softly lighted red or white balloons, each one a representation of the millions of lives touched by blood cancers.  The evening celebrates and commemorates those lives touched by cancer.  Prior to the walk, teams and individual walkers enjoy live entertainment, food, kids activities, and more.

This year's A.I. Dupont Hospital for Children walk will take place on Saturday, October 4, 2008. Click here to register as a team or an individual. Registration begins at 5:00 pm and the Walk will start

at 7:00 pm. If you have any questions, please call 302-661-7300 ext. 26.
 

Last year's walk was a great success. We met our goal by raising over $208,000 for blood cancer research. Noe of this could have been possible without each and everyone of you. Thanks so much for all of your support. We hope to make this year's walk an even bigger success than last year. The funds you raise directly support our mission to cure leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, and Hodgkin’s disease and improve the quality of life for patients and their families.

Pictures of this year's walk are now available. Click on the link below to view the pictures.
