Melissa Dentch is the local campaign manager for “The Light the Night Walk”, a national fund raiser for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS) which supports blood cancer research. Melissa showed a clip of girl near death who was given a research drug that attacked the cancer blood cells and resulted in total remission. More than 200 communities participate in the Light the Night Walk by forming teams of friends and families. The events start at 5PM. Locally, LLS hosts 3 Walks: Rockville Town Center (Oct 11), Reston Town Center (Oct 17), and Washington, DC (Oct18). For more details go to www.lightthenight.org/nca
