Get Involved / How we raise money
The main fundraising event for the Oesophageal Cancer Fund is Lollipop Day. This is an annual event that takes place at the end of February each year when thousands of volunteers sell lollipops around Ireland in an effort to raise awareness of Oesophageal cancer.
Awareness for the Oesophageal Cancer Fund and Lollipop Day has grown year on year and funding has increased alongside.
