Endurance training programs prepare you for your event while raising money for a charity. You can find a program for a huge variety of causes, including cancer research, help for disabled veterans, education for disadvantaged groups and more.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The rewards are many. On one level, you get to help develop your own stamina, but you also get to attach your event to something bigger, to &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/ways-runners-can-give-back-2911011&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;make your run count&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; for more than you even thought possible.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The Leukemia &amp;amp;amp; Lymphoma Society lights up the night when the sun goes down each fall. With its food tents, community, and a bright show of unity, it&amp;amp;#39;s more than a charity walk.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Across North America, Light The Night Walk\u00A0 inspires and illuminates. Uniting communities, families, and survivors, Light The Night honors those who have been touched by &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/living-with-leukemia-4013558&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;blood cancers&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;, and keeps the light shining brightly on the importance of finding cures. During the Walk, people carry illuminated lanterns in three colors: survivors carry white lanterns; supporters carry red lanterns; and gold ones are carried by walkers who are walking in memory of loved ones lost to cancer.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Have you registered for your local walk?

Something you\u2019ve got could save a person in ways doctors and modern medicines, alone, cannot.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Every four minutes in the United States someone is diagnosed with a blood cancer like leukemia or lymphoma. For thousands of them, blood and bone marrow stem cell transplants can be a second chance at life. Here, two big misconceptions about being a donor are examined.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;strong&amp;gt;Myth 1: Individual Donors Don\u2019t Really Make a Difference&amp;lt;/strong&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;strong&amp;gt;Fact: &amp;lt;/strong&amp;gt;Your willingness to become a donor gives people hope for life.

Your help &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;does&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; matter, and you could be the perfect match. Close relatives, especially brothers and sisters, are more likely than unrelated people to match, but most people do not have a match in their family.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
