Cancer drive on
By Shelley McPhee
The 1981 cancer canvass got underway
in Clinton last week when an estmaited
$2,400 was raised for cancer research and
public education.
Clinton's two chapters of the Beta Sigma
Phi were out in full force on Thursday and
Friday and sold 12,000 fresh daffodils, the
cancer symbol. Selling at $2 for a bunch of
10, the flower sale was a great success.
The .results not only made a substanial
donation for the Clinton branch of the
Canadian Cancer Society, but also gave
area h*mes a fresh, spot of spring through
thebright flowers.
A total of 44,000 daffodils were flown in
by Air Canada from British Columbia.
They were distributed in Clinton, Exeter
and Goderich and stored in the Brewer's
Retail stores where sorority ,,members
prepared them for sale.
As in past years, the flower sale was
successful in each community and helped
Huron County come closer to its $63,000
objective for this year.
." Clinton will raise $11,500 for,the cause in
1981, and many people offered their sup-
port and donations at the annual Daffodil
Tea on Friday, April 3. Hosted by St.
Paul's Anglican Church in Clinton the
afternoon event was attended by well over
100 people.
Clinton's goal will get another boost on
Wednesday, May. 6 when Mary's Sewing
Centre in Clinton hosts its spring fashion
show. An afternoon and evening show will
take place at Central Huron Secondary
School on Princess Street.
According to organizer Mary Divok, the
:litest pattern creations from the fashion
Wises ises will be modelled and several
1
displays on sewing techniques and
materials will also be shown.
Last year, proceeds from the show gave
a $600 donation to the Clinton Cancer
Society branch. Another $800 was donated
to Childhood Cancer and $200 was given to
the Early Childhood Education Centre in
Clinton. Volunteers from the centre helped
prepare and serve lunch and show, and
they have agreed to . offer their services
again this year.
A door-to-door canvass will soon get
underway in Clinton as well to help raise
more funds for the society.
The annual cancer canvass is a fund
raising effort separate from the Marathon
of Hope campaign which Terry Fox began
'last year with overwhelming support from
people across the county.
Terry wanted the money he raised in his
attempt to walk across Canada to be over
and above normal campaign funds. As
Terry requested, the Marathon of Hope
fund will continue to be separate from all
other funds, with money raised going
directly tospeciai cancel research. •_
Ongoing programs in cancer research as
well as patient services and public
education are funded through the yearly
canvass that is now underway.
While the Marathon of Hopb fund and the
canvass drive are two separate money
raising attempts, the final objective is all
the same. Cancer society officials urge
everyone to continue supporting the fight
against pancer through both funds.
Through public donations, the strength,
heroic determination and faith that Terry
Fox showed all Canadians will continue to
flourish and prove to be a great aid in the
fight against the dreaded disease.
