Daffodil Month

Every Spring, Canadian Cancer Society volunteers are busy delivering and selling bright, yellow daffodils to help raise money in support of the fight against cancer. The daffodil is the Canadian Cancer Society’s symbol of hope. The cheerful blooms are sold every year and mark the beginning of Daffodil Month.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!

We are currently recruiting volunteers to help with the Daffodil Days campaign. You can support those living with cancer in Newfoundland and Labrador by helping sell daffodil flowers. We need individuals and community groups to get involved with bringing these flowers of hope to our province. We can’t do it without you!

• April 27th is Daffodil Day, a time when Canadians unite to show their support of people living with cancer and remember loved ones lost to the disease

• Daffodil Day is the highlight of our Daffodil Month activities

• On Daffodil Day, we ask that you take a moment to reflect upon the thousands of Canadians who are on a cancer journey and remember those we’ve lost to the disease

• By making a donation and wearing the daffodil pin, you can show people living with cancer that they’re not alone in the fight and we won’t stop fighting until all forms of the disease are defeated

• Get involved this Daffodil Day – wear a daffodil pin, attend various events in your community, do something special for someone living with cancer, or become a volunteer and help raise awareness.
