To the editor;
This week, more than 3,300 Canadians will be told by doctors that they have cancer. Although the numbers are staggering, the Canadian Cancer Society is working hard to change them. Our mission is to eradicate cancer and to help improve the quality of life of those people living with the disease.
This April is Daffodil Month – the month that we can all fight back against cancer. Your community needs you; as few as three hours can make an enormous difference. We need your support to beat this disease. Fight back with your time. To volunteer, please visit fightback.ca and click ‘volunteer’, or contact us directly at sirvolunteers@bc.cancer.ca.
Please help us fight back and volunteer today. On behalf of the more than 22,000 people in B.C. and the Yukon who will be diagnosed with cancer this year, we greatly appreciate your support.
