Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is the presenting sponsor of the 2017 Houston Light The Night (LTN) Walk to help this great organization fund lifesaving research of blood cancer treatments. On Friday, November 17, over Gexa 228 employees and family members joined more than 9,000 walkers at Minute Maid Park for a 2-mile walk with the purpose of bringing light to the darkness of cancer. At the LTN Walk, participants represent themselves through color; white lanterns carried by survivors, red lanterns carried by supporters, and gold lanterns by those honoring the memory of their loved ones.
