Welcome to the Louisiana Chapter

The Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's nationwide evening walk to celebrate cancer survivorship and commemorate those lives touched by cancer.  Walkers carry illuminated balloons in show of support.  Friends and family carry red illuminated balloons;  cancer patients and survivors carry white illuminated balloons.  Funds raised support the Society's mission: Cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of live for patients and their families.

Your participation will help save lives.  Please join us in our fight against cancers as we light the night with hope and raise funds to find cures.
