Fund-Raising Blooms for Cancer Society

Share via

The local American Cancer Society recently raised $227,500 for cancer programs.

More than 135,500 daffodils were sold during the 14th annual Daffodil Days event last month. The fund-raiser collected close to $60,000 more than last year.

The money will be spent locally for research, education and patient service programs.

The daffodil is used because it is the first flower of spring, and with spring comes the hope of a world free of cancer.
