Taft partner Stephen H. Jett was one of the “Heart of the Walk” speakers at the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society “Cleveland Light the Night Walk” reception at the Cleveland State University Wolstein Center on Saturday evening, September 24.  The two hour reception was the prelude to the fundraiser walk and featured a remembrance ceremony, pep band performances, and survivor stories.

Each year, in communities all across the United States and Canada, teams of families, friends, co-workers and local and national corporations come together to raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS's) Light The Night Walk events and bring help and hope to people battling blood cancers.  The Society is making a real impact in the lives of cancer patients, their families and caregivers. Funds raised from the walk support blood cancer research, free education and services for patients and their families, and ultimately find a cure.

Mr. Jett also serves on the Board of Directors of The Gathering Place, a non-profit cancer support organization in Greater Cleveland.
