Volunteering – ASCE Jacksonville Branch

VOLUNTEERING OPPORTUNITIES

Light the Night Volunteering with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society

Join us in the fight to cure cancer! On Thursday, November 16th, ASCE Jacksonville Branch has the opportunity to volunteer with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) in the Annual Light the Night Walk. This walk is a physical demonstration of solidarity to celebrate, honor, and remember those touched by blood cancers. Donating is encouraged, but not required. We kindly request that you, your friends, and your families join us in this meaningful event.

The walk begins at the Adam W. Herbert University Center and concludes with a Laser show. Additionally, we will have an optional pre-walk meet up at the newly renovated Boathouse at the UNF Student Union. Note: this event is not dog friendly, please leave your four-legged friends at home.
