Daffodil Day is the Irish Cancer Society's biggest fundraiser, taking place each year in March and raising millions of euro to support cancer patients and their loved ones by providing free advice and support, as well as by funding life-saving cancer research.Usually on Daffodil Day, thousands of volunteers take to the streets selling flowers and daffodil pins to collect funds for the fight against cancer. Here at St John the Baptist BNS we have organised a number of fundraising events in previous years. This year, due to Covid-19 restrictions, Daffodil Day will be different - and more important than ever. Daffodil Day is a day for us all to give hope to people affected by cancer. Funds raised during the Daffodil Day campaign are used across the country to help the 44,000 people who will hear the words "you have cancer" each year.
So on Friday, 26 March we are going to have a yellow day at school and we would encourage you to participate in a Daffodil day dash. Please give what you can to make a difference to the lives of people going through cancer. Follow the link to read all the details and donate what you can to this very important fundraiser.
