Mouth Canadian Cancer Society Id .1 Sociéte canadienne du cancer lM You Know? The Canadian Cancer Society is the largest charitable funder of cancer research in Canada. In 2000/01, the Canadian Cancer Society contributed more than $42 million to cancer research in Canada. Last year, more than $10 million was raised in Ontario through the generosity of people giving at the door. This year, the Cancer Society hopes to raise $11 million sole- ly through its door-to-door campaign. About 75,000 volunteers will be knocking on doors in neighbourhoods across the province this April. Our canvassers are volunteers. They donate their time and effort to the Canadian Cancer Society's Daffodil Month campaign and are not paid. The Canadian Cancer Society's Daffodil Month residen- tial campaign is an important fundraiser but it is also an opportunity for us to provide health messages about how the people can reduce their risk of cancer and how they can obtain more information by calling our toll- free number at 1-888-939-3333. We can also inform the public about our services for people living with cancer, such as transportation and emotional support. The Canadian Cancer Society was founded in March 1938 as the Canadian Society for the Control of Cancer. The first direct appeal to the public for funds came in the early 1950's when April was adopted as the month for the Canadian Cancer Society's major fundraising effort. Previously the organization relied on member- ship subscriptions for funding. Just over half (51 per cent) of the money raised by the Canadian Cancer Society in Ontario is used to fund cancer research. Most of the balance is used for community services and pro- grams such as transportation, information and emo- tional support (Community programs 32 percent; Fundraising Il percent; Administration 6 percent). The Canadian Cancer Society provides information about all cancers, treatment, early detection and resources available. The Canadian Cancer Society also provides help getting to and from cancer-related care appointments. Let's make cancer history!
