At the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS), we know that cancer changes people. But we believe that a cancer diagnosis doesn’t have to define who they are. We aim to help people live longer and enhance the quality of life for all of those affected by cancer.
During our Daffodil Campaign this spring, by volunteering just a few hours by selling Daffodil pins in Peterborough, Lindsay & Bobcaygeon for the Canadian Cancer Society, you can help save lives and support local people who are living with cancer.
Join us by volunteering and together, we can prove that life is bigger than cancer.
