Leadership Circle
To commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Vancouver Daffodil Ball, a select group of visionary leaders who are passionate about making a difference in the lives of Canadians affected by cancer have come together to form the 2026 Leadership Circle. The Leadership Circle recognizes individuals and organizations whose enduring support and leadership have helped grow the Daffodil Ball into BC’s largest fundraising gala, and one of the most impactful in Canada.
