The fundraising partner of BC Cancer will be knocking on the doors of Maple Ridge - Pitt Meadows residents again.

BC Cancer Foundation canvassers will be providing information on their monthly donor programs.

The research done with the money raised will aim to break new ground in genomics, immunology,and nuclear medicine, which will hopefully lead to prevention in high risk families, better treatments with fewer side effects, and ultimately improve health and longevity for people impacted by cancer.
