Peer Leaders Raise over $300 for Cancer Society ~ by Emily Granata

As we start to welcome spring, the season brings thoughts of hope, life, and flowers. With this in mind, the American Cancer Society gives us a chance to support cancer patients in their battle to fight. In the 1970’s, Daffodil Days began.  Contributors donate money to send daffodils to cancer patients across the country. Almost 50 years later, they continue this fight. The Daffodil serves as a symbol of hope that a cure will be found. This year, the American Cancer Society will bring these symbols of hope back, with the Daffodil Days campaign.

The Daffodil Days campaign lets our LCCTC Peer Leaders be a part of the Cancer Society's project by allowing us to reach out to our community with the option to donate money and order flowers.

This year, the Peer Leaders raised over $300! Orders from LCCTC will be delivered on March 21st.

What better way to put a smile on the face of someone you care for and at the same time put hope in the hearts of cancer patients? As always, great job, Peer Leadership!
