A message of thanks from Christine on behalf of the Daffodil Day Team
Your fundraising efforts mean the world to the almost 1 in 2 Australian's impacted by cancer.
Thank you for giving hope this Daffodil Day.
The power of cancer research
Every day, Cancer Council is investing in life-saving research that’s improving the way we prevent, detect and treat cancer. Thanks to investment in research by organisations like Cancer Council, cancer survival rates have increased from 46% in the late 1980s to 72% today.
And, thanks to those who support us, Cancer Council is the largest non-government funder of cancer research in Australia.
For all that cancer takes, give this Daffodil Day , so we can continue funding lifesaving research and accelerate breakthroughs into the prevention, early detection, treatment and care of cancer. Your support is bringing us closer to a cancer free future.
