Area companies and schools are invited to participate in the 26th Annual Hospice Buffalo Spring Bouquet Sale™, presented by First Niagara, for the event’s pre-sale phase held during January and February. Participants simply assign a coordinator in an office who takes care of ordering bouquets with Hospice Buffalo. A free display bouquet and kit is provided to each company/school coordinator. Coordinators are eligible to win a Flip Video camcorder by attending a special breakfast on Jan. 17 with WGRZ-TV’s Jodi Johnston.
Each gorgeous bouquet of fresh flowers includes roses, carnations, other fresh flowers and greens. The bouquets can be pre-ordered for $8 each – and are sure to put the feeling of spring in the air! A special over-sized tribute bouquet is also available to pre-order for $30. For every tribute bouquet ordered, a spring bouquet will be given to a current Hospice Buffalo patient.
Founded by the Professional Florists of Western New York, the Hospice Buffalo Spring Bouquet Sale™ is the largest fundraiser for the Hospice Foundation.
Over 500 community volunteers assist with the sale. Media Sponsors include WGRZ-TV Country 106.5 WYRK , Joy 96.1, and Lamar Advertising. For more information on volunteering, signing up your company or school, call the Hospice Foundation at (716) 686-8090 or visit on-line at http://www.hospicebuffalo.com.
Proceeds from the Spring Bouquet Sale benefit the Hospice Foundation, supporting Hospice Buffalo, the Hospice Buffalo House at Mitchell Campus, the St. John Baptist/Hospice Buffalo House, Essential Care for Children, and the Life Transitions Center. All are part of The Center for Hospice & Palliative Care, dedicated to the care and support of individuals with a serious or end of life illness.
