At The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light The Night we gather as a community to celebrate, honor, and remember those touched by cancer.

We would not be able to Light The Night without the help of our volunteers and encourage you to join us as we bring light to the darkness of cancer.


Once you have signed up on Volunteer Match, a member of the LLS staff will reach out to find out more information about which roles you are interested in. Below are some examples of event day volunteer positions:

  • set up
  • hand out t-shirts
  • hand out lanterns
  • route monitor
  • traffic control
  • monitor kids zone (background check required and provided by LLS)
  • and much more!

Feel free to invite your family, friends, and coworkers to help as well. Our walks are growing each year and we can always use the extra help! More information about South Dakota Light The Night can be found here: https://www.lightthenight.org/events/sioux-falls.

Whether you are able to volunteer for a little bit or for the whole day or evening, we have a spot for you.

About Leukemia & Lymphoma Society - Minnesota Chapter

Location:

1711 Broadway Street NE, Minneapolis, MN 55413, US

Mission Statement

The mission of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is: Cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. We work tirelessly to find cures and ensure patients can access the lifesaving treatments they need. When someone experiences the fear and uncertainty of a blood cancer diagnosis, we provide hope, compassion, education and support. Our impact is felt beyond blood cancer. The breakthrough treatments we helped advance for blood cancers are now improving the lives of people affected by many types of cancer.

Description

Volunteers are our partners in the crusade to end cancer.

In 2021, LLS volunteers made a significant impact while selflessly dedicating their time and talent to achieve our mission. With countless ways to engage, from fundraising to providing patient support, our volunteers are changing the landscape of cancer.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Minnesota Chapter was founded in 1982 to serve residents who have been touched by one of the blood cancers: leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. The chapter serves the states of Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota.
