Dear Reader,

Like you and everyone at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, Jacqueline Valade hasn’t given up hope that cancer can be conquered. Most people wouldn’t blame her if she had though, because she watched her 22 year old son, Andrew lose his life to brain cancer.

Despite being so young, despite his hopes and dreams, despite his family’s love, there were no more options for Andrew.

You can give hope to patients and honour a loved one this holiday season. Donate and Dedicate a Dove of Hope.

Your Dove will help give hope to patients and families this holiday season. Your gift will allow researchers to keep working hard to find new and better ways to help people like Andrew survive. But they can’t do it without your help.

Donate and dedicate a Dove of Hope to a loved one today!

Andrew’s friends and family donate and dedicate a Dove in Andrew’s name to keep his memory alive, and give hope to patients and families so that no one has to suffer like they have.

Their donations are used to help advance research at The Princess Margaret that will lead to new and better ways to treat all kinds of cancers. And we’ll use your special donation in the same way.

You can keep a loved one’s memory alive, honour a loved one, and give hope to all patients this holiday season.

Donate and dedicate a Dove today.

Hope alone isn’t enough to conquer cancer. It takes research, treatment, and help from people like you to conquer cancer. Please dedicate a Dove and give generously to help us advance research, find answers, and improve treatments so that we can conquer cancer in our lifetime.

My deepest thanks for joining Doves of Hope this holiday season,

Lynn Douglas
Vice President
The Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation

P.S. Donate and dedicate a Dove of Hope today. Your Dove keeps memories alive, and gives hope to patients and families this holiday season. Thank You.
