DAFFODIL OYSTERS: A Fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society
Toronto, ON February 4, 2017 - World Cancer Day - Seacore Presents @DaffodilOysters #SHUCKcancer #Canada150 @ShuckerPaddy
In support of The Canadian Cancer Research Foundation, Seacore has developed the @DaffodilOyster program where $20 from every box of oysters will be donated to The Canadian Cancer Research Foundation. That's $0.20 per Oyster! 10 Oysters out of the 100 per case will have the special Yellow Bands on them.
The @DaffodilOysters are expertly aquacultured by George and Marlene Dowdle in New London Bay, PEI. Off bottom cultured, tumbled by the tides, and sweetened by PEI's legendary waters, these oyster are as much a pleasure to shuck as they are to eat, and serve to your guests!
Everyone has been affected by cancer in some way or another, and most recently, Marlene Dowdle was diagnosed with brain cancer. To support and help advance research as much as possible, Seacore has created this program to raise awareness, fund Canadian Cancer Research and feature the Dowdle's fantastic work on the water.
George and Marlene hand raise, and pack and band the oysters in every box. The #ShuckCancer "Reminder" Oyster Bands are placed on the oyster to remember - those we love, those we've lost, to get checked regularly for signs of cancer and to just enjoy life and to tell cancer to ShuckOff! Wear your Oyster bands proudly. Use, and reuse in daily life.
Instagram Post your best pics of your OysterBands @DaffodilOysters #ShuckCancer to support the team, and win prizes! Let's all wish Marlene and the Dowdle's the best, and shuck a whack of @DaffodilOysters!
Now it s up to you to do your part. Order the @DaffodilOysters through Seacore to help us #ShuckCancer!
