Carnation sale benefits Habitat for Humanity
OXFORD – Michelle Davis is the new Red Carnation Chairperson, assisted by Sandra Colton, for Chenango County Habitat for Humanity, and they are gearing up for the 15th annual Red Carnation Sale. The sale raises funds to support Chenango County Habitat for Humanity’s current project, a house being built on 7 Mill Street in Greene, and future projects. Orders for carnations will be taken from Jan. 10-25, by calling a representative in your area or Sandra Colton 334-7492.
Red carnation prices are $10/half dozen; and $15/dozen. In years past, Habitat’s 300+ volunteers have sold over 15,000 flowers, raising close to $9,000, and this year they hope to increase that number. Distributions and pick-ups will be on Saturday, Feb. 7 and Wednesday, Feb. 11 – just in time for Valentine’s Day bouquets for sweethearts.
With great conviction Michelle Davis said, “Chenango County is being blanketed with red carnations for Habitat for Humanity!”
This selfless dedication is demonstrated as Michelle, Sandra, and their assistant coordinators arrange the flower distribution. First the carnations are split up to the four main centers: First Congregational United Church of Christ in Greene; Norwich Broad Street Methodist Church; St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church in Oxford; and St. Malachy’s Roman Catholic Church in Sherburne. From there, the flower distribution branches out to dozens of churches, businesses/schools (staff & student councils)/colleges/health related/adult & nursing homes/civic organizations/real estate agencies/and restaurants. A network of volunteers from over 20 communities makes this fund raising possible. For a link to the volunteers contact list, visit- http://habitat.chenango.org/carnation.html#participation
Habitat for Humanity offers “a hand up, not a handout”. Buy red carnations for “Sweetheart Day” and help Habitat make dreams come true by helping to provide decent, affordable housing to families.
