[vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]We are delighted to have received such a positive response from cities across the country to light up iconic buildings and landmarks in GREEN to celebrate World Kidney Cancer Day. Help us to celebrate on June 20th and bring awareness about kidney cancer across Canada! We would love it if you could take a picture of your local landmark for us to post on social media. If you can be in the picture alone or with friends and family, even better!

Note: there will be no lightings in Nunavut, Northwest Territories and Yukon because of the midnight sun.
