Clearfield – The American Cancer Society invites local community members to join in celebrating the arrival of spring with their annual Daffodil Days campaign. As a symbol of hope and brighter days ahead, daffodils and tulips are sure to bring smiles to the faces of family, friends, loved ones and coworkers.
Daffodil Days is an opportunity to join with the American Cancer Society in support of their vision to end cancer as we know it, for everyone. Dollars raised through Daffodil Days help to improve the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research and patient support, to ensure that everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.
Volunteers will be set up within the community this week which will allow individuals who may have missed the pre-sale order to still participate in Daffodil Days. Volunteers will be set up at J.G. Food Warehouse in Clearfield at the following dates and times: Thursday, Mar. 20, Friday, Mar. 21 from 8a.m. to 6 p.m., and Saturday, Mar. 22 from 8:00 a.m. – 3 p.m.
For many years, individuals, small businesses and large corporations have supported the American Cancer Society through the Daffodil Days campaign by making donations for flowers that have been used to brighten the spirits of loved ones or as a way to say thank you to employees, friends, and colleagues. This year’s product offerings are as follows:
- $15 donation
- Bunch of 10 cut daffodils
- Bunch of 10 tulips in assorted colors
- $20 donation
- Pot of mini-daffodil bulbs, ready to bloom and able to be planted
- $25 donation
- Gift of Hope – will send bunches of daffodils to local hospitals and care centers for distribution to patients
The American Cancer Society thanks employees from CNB Bank, Clearfield for volunteering to assist with direct sale opportunities this year.
All flowers are available on a first-come, first-served basis, and the community is encouraged to arrive early to ensure they don’t miss out on the beautiful blooms.
