Light The Night Baltimore Event Day Volunteer

Save to Favorites

At The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), we're passionate about our mission: to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. LLS volunteers help carry out this mission in so many ways: supporting patients, family members, healthcare professionals, and our community, driving policy advocacy, participating in our campaigns, and helping LLS build much needed capacity.

All LLS volunteers agree to use our volunteer management platform to report service hours, receive email and other communication, access tools, receive LLS updates and use other features relevant to my volunteer role.

LLS provides critical support to individuals diagnosed with blood cancers and their families. We provide support groups in many regions across the country, information and referral, access to clinical trials, and peer to peer support.

At LLS we have many different types of fundraising programs.

These programs consist of:

• Team In Training,
• Light The Night,
• Of the Year,
• Big Climb

All of these programs are ways for our volunteers to get involved with LLS & help us to fight blood cancers.

As part of a mission centric, locally delivered and nationally powered organization this role serves to assist with event logistics. The outcomes of this role serve our mission work and help to ensure that the event is a rewarding one for participants and a successful one for LLS. Relentlessly pursuing cancer cures.

Position tasks may include any combination of the following:

• Provide assistance with event production items
• Order and organize event materials
• Recruit and supervise event day volunteers 
• Assist with special projects pertaining to this event as assigned
• Assist with logistics the day of the event as assigned
• Other event related tasks as assigned by staff

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS)'s Light The Night Walk funds treatments that are saving the lives of patients today. Friends, families and coworkers are encouraged to form teams to raise money in support of our mission. In October, the walks are a celebration of all the fundraising and a time to honor and remember those touched by cancer. There are three walks in the National Capital Area.
