New Goal - $100,000 in 60 Days GraphicJoin Us! Become a Sponsor!
Support another 60 years of programs, research, and resources provided by the American Floral Endowment (AFE)!

As you may know, I currently serve on the American Floral Endowment Board of Trustees. As a longtime supporter of the Endowment and in honor of its 60th anniversary, I am asking for you to join me in contributing to AFE!

For the second year in a row, AFE's annual fundraising event will be held virtually in order to assure the safety and health of our floral community. As a Board, our shared goal for this virtual non-event is to raise $100,000 in 60 days! (Monday, June 14th to Friday, August 13th). Thanks to our generous community, we have reached our initial goal of $60,000 in the first 30 days!

Your all-important, greatly appreciated sponsorship will go a long way towards helping me meet my personal goal of $6,000!

For 60 years, AFE has been supporting the industry; let's help them continue for another 60! Your donation to AFE helps increase funding to support:

  • Research to produce healthier, longer-lasting flowers and plants to boost profits for everyone.
  • Scholarships and Internships to recruit tomorrow’s leaders and provide and hands-on training for the next generation.
  • Educational Grants to provide learning opportunities and knowledge to all industry members.
  • Industry resources to recruit and retain top talent including a floral career center, resources to help train your employees, and more.
