(Pennsylvania) – Mother Nature might be saying it’s winter, but the American Cancer Society is helping you to think spring with the return of Daffodil Days! This colorful first flower of spring represents a campaign that brings hope to cancer patients, their caregivers, and families while providing much-needed funding to support the groundbreaking research, programs, and services of the American Cancer Society.

“Cancer touches us all in one way or another,” noted Dan Tobin, ACS Director of Regional Integrated Marketing. “By supporting the American Cancer Society through Daffodil Days, you are not only warming the hearts of others, but you are also helping the American Cancer Society to end cancer as we know it, for everyone.”

For many years, individuals, small businesses, and large corporations have supported ACS 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. Based on your donation amount, different options are available:

• $12 donation
  • Bunch of 10 regular daffodils
• $15 donation
  • Potted mini daffodils, or
  • Bunch of 10 assorted tulips
• $25 donation
  • Gift of Hope (supports the donation and delivery of flowers to patients in hospitals, treatment centers, and other local facilities)

Corporate donors wishing to secure large quantities for their entire office should call for options and pricing. Orders are being taken now through February 13. Flowers arrive the week of March 18.
