5pm - Wildwood Convention Center

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Light The Night Walk is an annual event to raise funds for cures. It’s the nation’s night to pay tribute and bring hope to thousands of patients and their families.

Funds raised through Light The Night Walk support the work of hundreds of the world’s best and brightest researchers in their search for better therapies and cures for leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma.

Anyone can take part—children, adults and seniors are all welcome. This is a casual Walk with no fitness requirements. Not only will you be helping find cures, but there are incentives that can be earned for different fundraising levels. Learn more about Walk incentives.

Now in it's 10th year, Light The Night is celebrating a Decade of Difference. During this time:

Nearly half a million patients and their caretakers have called the LLS Information Resource Center and received critical information about blood cancers, therapy options and issues surrounding treatment and survival.
Nearly $40 million was disbursed to patients through the LLS Patient Assistance program to help them get the treatment they needed to fight their cancer.
Over 100,000 patients and family members found comfort and hope through LLS First Connection and Family Support Groups.
LLS granted $425 million to more than 400 scientists searching for cures and improved treatments for patients.
LLS funding contributed to the development of a host of new drugs that are affecting patient survival and quality of life.
LLS-funded researchers began working in novel areas that hold great promise for finding cures and better treatments including new, less toxic stem cell transplants, immunotherapies and other targeted therapies.

Our Advocacy Network has successfully supported pro-patient legislation that will:

Help advance blood cancer research
Extend Medicare coverage to include oral anti-cancer drugs
Help fund efforts to reach underserved blood cancer patients
Please bring help and hope to thousands of people battling cancer.

Last year the Cape May County Walk raised over $70,000 - please help us do that again this September. As the Chairperson for the CMC walk for the second year in a row I do it for many reasons... but none more so to help children in our county who have been inflicted by this blood born cancer. I dedicate my effort to the memory of Kait Anzelone and challenge you to join us for this great community event.

I have asked Jordan Regalbuto to return as my co-chair and have ask Brittany Repholz to be our Honored Hero for the Wildwood Walk, two local girls who are fighting a courageous battle against Leukemia. Please help me, help them and the countless number of children, teens and adults who are effected by this terrible disease.

You don't need to raised hundreds of dollars to join us as this is as much about awareness as it's about fundraising. Make a donation, bring the family and join us for a walk down the Wildwood's Boardwalk this September.

Thanks,

Hello Everyone - well Mr. Lynch (Uncle John) needs my help again. Seems that he has volunteered us to help with the Light the Night walk. This is cool because I would love to help find a cure so other kids don't have to go through what my family and I have been through. As I said last year maybe one of the dollars we raise in Wildwood will be the dollar that finds a cure. We can only do that if you will donate and walk with us on Saturday Night of Firemen's Weekend. It was a lot of fun last year as they had all sorts of activities at the convention center. This year we will have a band on the boardwalk called the Rocktologists - they are a bunch of doctors from Cape May County. Luckily for me they will be playing with instruments, not needles!

I hope you will consider joining our team - Team Double J (Jordan and John) We walk from the Convention Center to Morey's Pier on 25th Street. And just like last year, everyone that participates will get a free wrist band to ride the rides...

So wear a Hawaiian Shirt and come join, me, my parents & sister, Uncle John & Aunt Vicki and many of our friends for a walk down the Wildwoods Boardwalk!

Thanks,

Jordan
