Everyone loves fresh flowers. The sight of the yellow blooms brings us so much joy.
Daffodils have become a symbol for the American Cancer Society as each spring the potted blooms and bunches of flowers spring up in homes and offices throughout the country.
When you see a daffodil, we know there is hope, and with hope, there is a cure. They’re a burst of sunshine. When there is still cold weather outside, we know there’s warmth and that light lies ahead of us each day.
Daffodils, one of the first flowers of spring, have come to symbolize a cancer-free world.
From early January through mid March, the American Cancer Society will offer daffodils, the “flower of hope”, to individuals and businesses in Rappahannock County and the surrounding area. If anyone notices the daffodils, take time I out and thank whoever purchased them for their continued support. Money received from the daffodil sales are used by the American Cancer Society for research, advocacy, education
