:: News & Events > Leukemia & Lymphoma Society - Light the Night
The Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's annual, nationwide walk to raise awareness and funds to cure leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.
Leslie participated in the walk with gusto, from her first year of diagnosis, to her final year when she crossed the Brooklyn Bridge in a wheelchair. Lawrence intends to continue fundraising in her memory each year to keep her spirit alive. Team Shamrock is named for Leslie's transplant date: St. Patrick's Day, 2003.
