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. Distributions and pick-ups will be on Saturday, Feb. 6 and Thursday, Feb. 11 – just in time for Valentine’s Day bouquets for sweethearts.
Be part of the blanketing with red carnations for Habitat for Humanity!
This selfless dedication is demonstrated as Sandra, and her assistant coordinators, arrange the flower distribution. First the carnations are split up to the four main centers: Zion Episcopal Church 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 habitat.chenango.org.
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.
