Sydney Opera House on World Pancreatic Cancer Day
YOU PAINTED THE WORLD PURPLE!

Amazing job, everyone! World Pancreatic Cancer Day 2017 was the best yet.

It was so exciting to see all the purple monuments, media coverage, photos, stories and more as the world came together to Demand Better.

We will share all the successes of World Pancreatic Cancer Day with you in a few weeks. Thank you for all your hard work in making sure the world was purple!

Please don't forget to let us know What's the best thing that happened on your WPCD? Send your answer to clara@worldpancreaticcancercoalition.com.

WHAT DID YOU THINK OF THIS YEAR'S WPCD CAMPAIGN?

While the WPCD campaign is still fresh in your mind, please answer a few questions to help us make WPCD 2018 an even greater success. We are especially interested in how easy you found it to access and use tools and assets, which elements of the campaign activities your organization took part in or promoted to your supporters, and any thoughts you have about improvements we can make for next year's campaign. The survey will take less than five minutes to complete! Please be honest with your replies – it will genuinely help us improve the WPCD campaign. The deadline is Dec. 8.

CONGRATULATIONS ARE IN ORDER!
