I have participate in Light The Night for over 2 years now. I lost my mom after a courageous year long battle with lymphoma and she is who inspired me to participate.
I recently reached the $5,000 fundraising milestone by sharing my moms inspiring story on social media - we have the best family, friends and co workers who helped us reach our goal!
To me Light The Night is an annual memorial for my mom who was able to walk with us last year. Now we raise money to help find a cure and fund research so one day families won’t have to go through what we did.
It's important for Canadians to support the blood cancer community because there is a need to fund more research and support programs and eventually find a cure.
