Make a Donation Christmas Seals Campaign |  |
Christmas Seals 2012 |
 |
Since 1927, the Christmas Seal has been a Holiday Season tradition in Quebec and abroad. Initially promoted in Denmark around the turn of the last century as a means of helping disadvantaged children, the Christmas Seal campaign has become, in America, a symbol of the battle agains respiratory illnesses. And I am both pleased and honoured to be its spokesman once again this year.
The Holiday Season is a time for rejoicing and renewing ties with those who are dear to us, but it is also a time for expressing love and sharing with those who are less fortunate. In addition to adorning your gifts and correspondence, the Christmas Seal is therefore the best way to express your support to individuals with lung disease.
Enclosed you will find your brand new decorative Christmas Seals, specially designed for this period of celebration. You may start to use them right away; they are yours to keep.
Of course, you can choose to make a donation to the Quebec Lung Association by returning the enclosed reply coupon. There is no obligation; we are simply counting on your generosity to continue developing services and to provide support to those who suffer from respiratory illnesses like lung cancer, asthma, chronic bronchitis or emphysema.
Your donation sends a message of love and sharing to these people whose numbers exceed 1.5 million in Quebec alone. Your contribution goes a long way in helping us to help them.
Jean-Claude Poitras,
Designer and proud spokesman for the Quebec Lung Association
P.S. : Thanks to the work of the Quebec Lung Association’s professionals, even a modest donation can make a real difference. Let your heart speak!
