Dear
 
On October 3, 2008, I’ll be walking in The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light The Night® Walk to raise funds to help fight cancer. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is the world’s largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer research and providing education and patient services.
 
I’d like to enlist your support for this important cause. It’s important because there are more than 823,000 people in the United States and Canada who are fighting blood cancers. Although research is responsible for increasing survival rates for these diseases,
the battle is far from over.
 
•     Every five minutes, someone in this country is diagnosed with blood cancer. Every 10 minutes, someone dies.
•     Leukemia is the leading cause of cancer death among children and young adults under the age of 20.
•     Lymphomas are the most common blood cancers and incidence increases with age.
•     The myeloma survival rate is only 34 percent. Incidence is nearly double for African- Americans as for all other races.
 
Please sponsor me. By doing so, we’ll both be helping save lives. Please fill out the
tear-off sheet below and return it along with your check in the enclosed envelope. In
addition to your valuable sponsorship, I encourage you to join me in Light The Night and
to ask friends or family members to walk with you. To register, visit http://teams.lightthenight.org/AASURadiationTherapy
 
 
 
Thank you very much for your support.
 
Sincerely,
