Help Hope Bloom for the Canadian Cancer Society this April

As part of the Merivale Vision Care family, you’ll know that giving back to our community and helping others in need is one of our core values. We are extremely proud to share that will be supporting the Daffodil Campaign and the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS)  this April, as we did in 2022 and years before. The daffodil is the first flower to bloom in the spring and is a symbol of resilience, strength, courage, and hope – a symbol made even more important to people facing cancer.

Nearly 1 in 2 Canadians will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, which means that almost all of us will be impacted by cancer in some way. We’re confident that many of you – like us – have a poignant story from your lives linked to this life-threatening disease. We simply can’t ignore the gravity of a statistic like that, so to support the CCS in all their life-saving endeavors we are donating $4 for every eye exam during the month of April to the Daffodil Campaign.

The Daffodil campaign supports those dealing with cancer, where funds raised go towards life-changing research and to help ensure that no one must deal with cancer alone. When you visit us for your eye exam during April, you are helping to support the Daffodil Campaign and all it stands for simply by taking care of your ocular health. Each $4 donation helps to support world-leading research to better prevent, detect, and treat cancer to give all Canadians hope, regardless of where they are in their cancer experience. Every donation works to enrich compassionate support programs nationwide, so those affected by cancer can find comfort and connection to help them live fully. All donations help to fund meaningful advocacy work to raise awareness about important cancer issues to prevent cancer and better support those facing cancer.

Please click here to book your eye exam appointment or call us to schedule your visit. Once you have your eyes checked, your donation will go to support the Daffodil Campaign and everything it stands for to make the lives of those in our community facing cancer. Let’s help hope bloom! You can also donate directly to the Daffodil Campaign here.
