The Irish Cancer Society is seeking dedicated volunteers to lead the charge for Daffodil Day in Donaghmede and Finglas on March 28, 2025. This annual event brings communities together to raise funds for cancer research and support services across Ireland. With only 5% of its income coming from the government, the society relies on the generosity of donors, fundraisers, and volunteers to make a difference in the lives of those affected by cancer.
Join the Fight Against Cancer
Daffodil Day is a symbol of hope for cancer patients and their families, with over 10,000 volunteers participating each year. These volunteers play a crucial role in organizing street sales, selling daffodils, and collecting donations to support the Irish Cancer Society’s vital work. The success of Daffodil Day hinges on the dedication and hard work of these community organizers.
