The Rhode Island Senate has introduced a resolution, SR 1118, supporting the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's "Light The Night Walk," scheduled for September 27, 2025. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is a charitable organization focused on combating blood cancers, including leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, and myeloma. The resolution emphasizes the significance of LLS's mission to cure these diseases and enhance the quality of life for patients and their families.

The Light The Night Walk is a major fundraising event aimed at funding research, providing advocacy, and raising awareness about blood cancers while fostering community support. The event will take place in Providence, beginning at the Rhode Island State House, and will involve participants carrying lanterns to symbolize hope in the fight against cancer. The Senate encourages all Rhode Islanders to participate in this event to support research and ensure access to treatments for blood cancer patients. Additionally, the resolution mandates that a certified copy be sent to Laura Lanni, the Campaign Development Manager for the Providence Light The Night Walk.

Introduced by Senator Hanna M. Gallo on May 29, the resolution has been placed on the Senate Consent Calendar.
