Daffodil Day
Daffodil Day is the largest national fundraising day for cancer research, patient and family support and education in New Zealand.
It is a special day and is always held on the last Friday in August every year.
What do we do with the money?
The money raised from Daffodil Day is used to :
- Fund vital cancer research into the causes and treatment of cancer
- Provide free support to cancer patients, their families and caregivers
- Enable education and prevention programmes to be set up in the community
