Flowers will be sold outside under a tent at both locations. Plants and flowers will also be available at Children’s Hospital.
Proceeds will benefit the YWCA KIDS Korner childcare for children of homeless families.
Customers who want to buy flowers and gift items can view them before the sale at www.ywcabham.org/flowersale. The selection includes a greeting card as well as potted
flowers, cut flowers and vases priced from $5 to $40.
The YWCA KIDS Korner is the city’s only childcare facility for homeless people in the Birmingham area. Since 1989, the program has provided quality care to more than 1,800 infants, toddlers and preschoolers who live in area homeless shelters.
The program is free to parents and helps them to find work, participate in job training programs or seek housing.
YWCA Junior Board members, staff and community volunteers and local news
anchors will be on hand to help shoppers select gifts for their mothers, teachers, friends and others.
For more information on the sale, contact Christian Smith at 322-9922, ext. 307, or [email protected] or visit www.ywcabham.org/flowersale.
