National Awareness Month ... Turn Canada Purple
November is Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month (PCAM) - an opportunity for us to come together to raise awareness of this deadly disease and provide comfort and support to those who have lost loved ones.
Landmarks across Canada are participating in the national awareness campaign - see below for complete list of buildings.
Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Kit:
Download our awareness resources and spread awareness in your community.
Ways to get involved:
- Ask a local landmark to turn purple to raise awareness (downloadable letter above)
- Request that your city, municipality or provinces declares November as National Awareness Month or November 17th as World Pancreatic Cancer Day. (downloadable proclamation form above)
- Wear a purple ribbon throughout November or wear purple to
work on World Pancreatic Cancer Day (check our purple store for awareness items)
- Raise awareness among
your social media network - see our edgy new awareness campaign on facebook and twitter
- Host a DIY Purple Fundraiser or a Purple Light Vigil on World Pancreatic Cancer Day
- Honour a Loved One - Buy a Kite and help support our new research initiative
We rely on your support to make a difference. By turning Canada purple throughout National Awareness Month, we can generate conversation and awareness of pancreatic cancer. November is our time to UNITE in the FIGHT against pancreatic cancer.
Light it Purple
We thank the following Landmarks for shining a purple light on pancreatic cancer this November. Let us know if you have a building in your community that has turned purple to support this important fight - we will post it below.
