Daffodil Days raised money to fight cancer
Published 9:02 am Friday, April 10, 2009
The Freeborn County Daffodil Days Committee would like to thank all who were involved in making the event a success again this year!
Sales this year collected $14,792! This amount compared very favorably to other years; in fact, it was a little ahead of past years! This effort would not have been possible without our wonderful customers who faithfully purchase the flowers to further the fight against cancer and to honor those who have experienced this disease.
The committee would also like to thank the dozens of businesses and volunteers who organize presales, the dedicated volunteers who package and distribute flowers, and the kind people who do on-site sales. We appreciate the publicity provided by the media in our community and the generous people who share their personal stories with cancer to remind us that none of us is immune to this disease.
We look forward to Daffodil Days next spring in our work with the American Cancer Society!
