Postage Stamp Collection Program
    

     We collect used stamps, which are then sold to stamp collectors, with all proceeds going towards the purchase of the bandage components for cancer dressings which we fold on a monthly basis for use in our cancer facility by needy patients. The Cancer  dressing program has been done by all the chapters  around the province of British Columbia since the cancer charity program began in 1947. Many members of  the public don't know that used stamps can be recycled  and we are giving them a great opportunity to participate in our province wide stamp collection program that has been going since 1950, with $14,700.00  raised this past year and $375,000.00 since its'  inception.


     As cancer affects us all, this is a great way for all  of us to contribute to a worthy program. I could deliver as many used stamp collection containers as you might wish for use around your business or you can mail me your used stamps.
