Last weekend’s Light the Night Walk in Hoboken, NJ was attended by hundreds of people, including Governor Corzine, who came out to raise awareness and over $100,000 to combat blood cancers. The perfect weather, sunset and city views paired with participant’s enthusiasm to create a palpable energy. The symbolic balloons – white for survivors, red for supporters and gold in memory of loved ones lost – were literally lit up as the sun set and then walked through Hoboken.

This was our first time being involved in Light the Night and it was a pleasure working with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society team to set up the event, register participants and troubleshoot throughout the day.
