April is Daffodil Month
Do something right now to fight cancer or make life better for someone who has it.
Most of us have a cancer story. We’ve all been touched by the disease, directly or indirectly. There are more than 200 different types of cancers and a million ways that these cancers touch our health, families, friends and relationships. That’s a lot of stories. Make your story the reason you give.
Support the Canadian Cancer Society this spring, during Daffodil Month:
Buy Daffodils and Pins
Daffodil Days runs from March 31 - April 3, 2011. Bunches of daffodils will be available for $7 each or 2 bunches for $12. Volunteers will be selling daffodils at some community locations throughout Ontario.
New this year, the Society will ‘sell’ daffodil pins by donation. The daffodil pin is to be worn as a symbol of courage and support in honour of cancer survivors, loved ones and friends currently on a cancer journey. In some communities, the daffodil pin will replace the sale of fresh cut flowers.
Give generously at the door
Neighbourhood canvasses will take place throughout the entire month of April and thousands of Canadian Cancer Society volunteers will be knocking on doors across Ontario.
Because this isn’t just another appeal – it’s about you making cancer history.
The money raised during Daffodil Month makes a real difference. It helps the Canadian Cancer Society fund life-saving cancer research, provide up-to-date and reliable information about cancer to the public and deliver community support services.

Canadian Cancer Society volunteers are easily recognizable and always carry a volunteer identification badge. |
