Candlelighters event 1
The Candlelighters organization had it’s annual 5k on Saturday in Las Vegas to raise awareness about childhood cancer in Southern NV. ONE Vote ‘08 was proud to team up with MassMedia PR to form a walk team of 15 strong.

Thousands turned out over the weekend and we had a great morning participating in this event and spreading the word about ONE.
