June 13 - National Random Acts Of Light Day

 


Happy Random Acts of Light Day! Oftentimes it takes just one gentle word or small token to help overcome darkness. 


On June 13, this day encourages us to bring light to the darkness of cancer by surprising someone with an act of kindness. 


“There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.” ~ Edith Wharton 


Unfortunately, receiving the diagnosis of cancer is one of the darkest moments a person can have.  


However, as part of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light The Night Walks Walks fundraising campaign, Random Acts of Light brings awareness to the importance of providing cures. 


More importantly, the organization gives access to treatments for blood cancer patients. 


Take a friend fishing or bring them their favorite cup of coffee. A simple visit, a walk, or a fresh bouquet of flowers brings the light into the room. Surprise someone you love, by bringing a sparkle to their day.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society® (LLS) founded National Random Acts of Light Day to bring shine a light on the need for research and a cure for blood cancers. 


In 2017, celebrities and local heroes surprised people affected by blood cancers as part of Random Acts of Light.
