About The Challenge
Know-vember – help us spread the word on RADON and help others KNOW about it.
Radon exposure is the LEADING CAUSE of lung cancer in non-smokers. There are more than 3,200 radon-related lung cancer deaths in Canada each year.
Radon is the silent killer. We want our audience to make some noise and get the word out, and spot the signs of where radon can be hiding in plain sight.
Become a Radon Champion and WIN!
Let's Take Action on Radon Together!
To mark Radon Action Month this year, we challenge you to “Take Action” from October 15 to November 30 to share your knowledge about radon with someone else in your community and then let us know about it to enter to win prizes. It is simple, upload a photo and a short description to our online form for your chance to win weekly prizes.
Starting on November 9, we will do two weekly draws for a $50 gift card.
