Overview
Rockin’ Against Leukemia (RAL) is a pilot School & Youth program initially reaching out to over a million youth. High school and college students form their own Guitar Hero bands to compete in a Battle of the Bands Tournament at their schools. Funds are raised through ticket and program ad sales. Winners will receive their own GHWT bundle and advance to the RAL Battle of the Bands Championship! The championship will feature A-list celebrity judges, audience voting and great prizes that the expected 3,000 attending will have a chance to win.
Upon a successful RAL campaign in the Greater Los Angeles Area, the intent of LLS is to release this program nationally.
The RAL Honored Hero is 8-year-old Kaitlyn Walton who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia at the age of two. Kaitlyn successfully completed two years of cancer treatments. She is now a happy, healthy kid who enjoys karate, art and spending time with her animals and loved ones.
