WHEREAS, the Canadian Cancer Society is proud to be a champion and voice for Canadians who care about cancer and is committed to supporting and engaging people in our community; and

WHEREAS, through the Daffodil Campaign, funds are raised to fund ground-breaking research and support services which helps people impacted by cancer live their lives more fully; and
