The Northern Cancer Foundation's Scrap Cancer campaign has returned for June and July and is a very "Sudbury" way to donate to cancer care and awareness right here in Northeastern Ontario.
Every dollar raised by scrap metal and electronic waste during the months of June and July will be donated to the Northern Cancer Foundation to change cancer experiences and outcomes in the North.
There are two ways for people to participate:
As an organization – ask employees to bring in scrap metal and/or gather unused material at your organization (BM Metals can provide collection service).
By dropping off your scrap metal and electronic waste to the following locations:
- Bianco's Supercenter
- Ramakko’s
- Outside the Northeast Cancer Centre
"We ask that those donating scrap metal follow social distancing procedures and remain six feet (2m) away from anyone else dropping of their scrap metal," said NCF in a news release.
In eight years the Northern Cancer Foundation and all of its community partners have raised more than $350,000. One hundred per cent of the proceeds have been donated to the Northern Cancer Foundation to support cancer care, research and equipment purchases at the local level.
