According to the Cancer Council, investments by their organization and others in research have helped increase five-year cancer survival rates to 69%.
A spokesperson said: “We know that almost one in two people will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85, so it takes all of us to give hope for better treatments and outcomes.
“The more hope we give, the more lives we can save.”
Venues for events they include train stations, tram stops, shopping centers and public places such as King George Square in Brisbane and the Rialto Building in Melbourne.
For the first time this year, Daffodil Day eCards are on sale to help boost research coffers.
