************************************************
Each year, in communities across Canada, teams of families, friends, co-workers and local and national corporations come together to raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada's (LLSC's) Light The Night Walk events and bring help and hope to people battling blood cancers.

No, this is not the Ice Bucket Challenge you see on Facebook, but yet another good cause that needs attention.
