Great Daffodil Appeal : ウィキペディア英語版 | Great Daffodil Appeal
The Great Daffodil Appeal is Marie Curie's biggest annual fundraising campaign.〔http://www.mariecurie.org.uk/en-GB/fundraising-volunteering/great-daffodil-appeal/〕 Every March, millions of people across the UK support this fundraising event by giving a small donation to wear a daffodil pin. This makes it one of the UK’s most recognisable charity appeals.〔http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/humza-yousaf-marie-curie-cancer-3238034〕 Money raised through the appeal helps Marie Curie provide free care and support to people living with a terminal illness in their own homes or at one of the charity’s nine hospices. == History ==
The first Great Daffodil Appeal took place in 1986 in Scotland. Volunteers collected donations and handed out fresh daffodils. The appeal was soon extended to other parts of the UK. In 1995, Marie Curie replaced fresh flowers with fabric daffodil pins. Three million were given out and £1.2 million was donated. In 2005, the charity used the term ‘Great Daffodil Appeal’ for the first time. In 2011, actress Alison Steadman appeared in the charity’s first TV advertising campaign for the appeal. Alison has continued her support for the appeal, appearing in TV ads in 2012 and 2014 too.
