At Marquee at Block 27, we’re more than just a community; we’re a family committed to making a positive impact both within our walls and beyond. That’s why we’re excited to continue our annual partnership with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) in the fight for a cure to blood cancer during their annual Light the Night campaign.
What is Light the Night?
Light the Night is a meaningful event dedicated to celebrating, honoring, and remembering those affected by blood cancers. This inspiring evening unites communities across the nation, with participants carrying glowing lanterns—white for survivors, red for supporters, and gold in memory of loved ones lost.
It’s a powerful symbol of hope, support, and solidarity. It’s rare to get an opportunity to attend such an impactful event as this – right in your city!
About LLS
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is at the forefront of the battle against blood cancers. They fund crucial research, provide support for patients and families, and advocate for policies that improve access to care.
By partnering with LLS, Marquee helps drive advancements in life-saving treatments and bring hope to many facing these challenging conditions.
Join Us for Light the Night Walk in Chicago
This year, the Light the Night Walk in Chicago will take place on Saturday, October 26, 2024, at Soldier Field. As the evening unfolds, Marquee will be there, lanterns in hand, walking together to support this vital cause.
We will also be raising funds and awareness directly within our community. The Marquee Family stands together – from service technician, resident, and leasing team – we are committed to supporting LLS together.
