BloomNet, FTD and Teleflora have partnered with AFE for the 2014 Friend of the Endowment Pledge Campaign, which runs through June 30.
Retail florists belonging to BloomNet, FTD or Teleflora have a chance to win a free registration to the 2014 Society of American Florists’ Annual Convention (Aug. 13-16 in Marco Island, Fla.) or a free iPad (their choice), just by becoming a Friend of the Endowment (a three-year, $50 per year pledge commitment).
Signing up is easy. Visit www.endowment.org/pledge and complete the pledge form or watch for information in the monthly wire service billing statements.
“BloomNet, FTD and Teleflora have all been generous longtime supporters of the Endowment," AFE Executive Director Debi Aker said. “Having their support in reaching out to retail florists is a win-win for everyone and helps support AFE’s continued efforts to create a stronger, more sustainable industry.”
AFE-funded projects have directly helped:
- Increase longevity of flowers
- Produce better quality and varieties of product
- Improve floral packaging
- Educate and foster the next generation of industry leaders
- Solve challenges posed by disease, pests and other environmental issues
Support the industry you love with a small annual tax-deductible donation. Because AFE uses only generated dividends from pledges and donations to fund projects, the principal gift is never spent. Every contribution to AFE continues to give.
