    Description

    Light The Night Seattle

    At Light The Night, we gather as a community to celebrate, honor, and remember those touched by cancer. Friends, families, schools, corporate teams, and sponsors join together to bring light to the darkness of cancer. The funds raised by this community fund lifesaving research, advocacy and support for blood cancer patients and their families.

    Volunteer Roles:

    To bring our walk to life, we require the support of:

    • 50 event support volunteers from 5-8:30
    • 10 clean up volunteers from 8:30-9:30

    If you wish to attend the walk as a participant, we welcome you to register and take part: https://www.lightthenight.org/events/greater-washington
