The beautiful yellow daffodils were a welcome sight after such a long and snowy winter! We were fortunate to have good weather for selling daffodils and all of our flowers were sold out by early Saturday afternoon. The Acton community showed their support for the Canadian Cancer Society and a total of $7,000 was raised through the sale! The money that is raised through the daffodil sale and our April door-to-door canvassing helps to fund valuable research efforts that make a difference for people living with cancer and for those of us that may encounter the disease in the future. The Canadian Cancer Society is the largest charitable funder of cancer research in Canada. This research helps Canadians to understand, prevent and reduce their risk of cancer by transforming research knowledge into information, programs and services. The Canadian Cancer Society helps people take control of their health with reliable information. The Cancer In- formation Service is a toll free number (1-888-939-3333) that people can call to get information about all types of cancer, treatment options and services that are available in each community. Informa- tion is a powerful tool and many people who have been newly diagnosed rely on Canadian Cancer Society publications to help them along their journey through treatment. Donations to the Canadian Cancer Society also help fund services for people who are living with cancer and their families. Transportation is available locally for patients that need help with getting to their cancer treatments. A pro- gram called the Cancer Connection is a peer support service that supports people who have been diagnosed with cancer by matching them with volunteers who have experienced a similar type of cancer. Volunteers are an essential part of the Canadian Cancer Society and I would like to thank all of the volunteers that helped with selling daffodils because we would not have had a successful sale without your wonderful efforts! We very much appreciate the Acton Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion for allowing us to store our daffodils at their facility and we are grateful to Sobeys for giving us the opportunity to sell our daffodils at their store. The New Tanner and the Independent Free Press provided wonder- ful publicity and we certainly appreciate your ongoing support. Sincerely, Cathy Gerrow, Daffodil Sale Coordinator, Acton Branch, Canadian Cancer Society. Why being let off? To the editor, I feel compel led to write in response to two articles in last weeks paper. In both instances, young people committed minor offences. (An- gelas column reported on two youngsters who vandalized a street sign and the police beat re- ported on three youth who stole the Seniors Centres banner from Sobeys.) Why are we let t ing these youngs ters of f completely? How will they learn a lesson? The lesion they will learn is they can vandalize and steal with no con- sequences! Maybe helping seniors in some way or clean- ing up an area of Acton would be a suitable pun- ishment What do other readers think? Name with-held by request. Buy Canadian To the editor, In my opinion, Canadian manufacturers should put a label on their goods saying Thank you for buying Ca- nadian and not supporting a communist country. Thank you for your time, Yours truly, Norman C. Foote
