In addition to buds slowly opening up on trees and shrubs and singing robins foraging for food, another sure reminder that spring is here are daffodils pushing their way through the warming soil.

Since the 1950s, cheerful daffodils have appeared across Canada in April to mark the beginning of Daffodil Month. Today, the daffodil continues to symbolize strength and courage in the fight against cancer. When you purchase a daffodil pin from a canvasser or fresh daffodils at a participating store, you help raise vital funds for cancer research.

Although two in five Canadians will develop cancer in their lifetime, more than 60% of those diagnosed with cancer are expected to survive for five years or more after diagnosis.1

However, recovery from cancer can result in serious financial hardship due to months of lost income and out-of-pocket costs in the thousands of dollars. Not all provincial and private health care plans cover expenses such as prescription medications, registered specialists and home care.
