A rose can never be a sunflower and a sunflower can never be a rose. All flowers are beautiful in their own way, and that is like women too.”
Miranda Kerr
Think of the women in your life.
Think of the women who are special to you, beautiful each in her own way – inside and out. The woman who made you who you are. The woman that brings light to a dark day. The woman who makes the world a kinder more beautiful place. Just like the sunflower, the daisy, and the rose, beauty comes in many forms and the special women in our lives emit all kinds of beauty.
Take a moment and revel in your wonderful thoughts.
I invite you to express your gratitude for these women, – mother, grandmother, sister, partner, friend -by sharing with others your appreciation of their love and talent. Make a gift now in honor or in memory to this year’s Fund for Women Mother’s Day Appeal.
Gifts to the Fund for Women help women bloom. We invest in girls and women in our community through grants that give a needed boost in times of struggle. We support education through scholarships and by funding projects that keep girls in school. We give funds that house women and children in distress. Our care grants provide support, comfort and dignity to women in times of illness and recovery. We need your help to continue the work. Together we can create a “garden” where mothers, spouses, daughters, family and friends can grow, thrive, and shine.
When you make a gift, we will acknowledge your special woman in three ways:
- in our new virtual honor garden where those you honor will be listed on our website, and
- in a public garden where each flower we plant is a tribute to the beautiful women in our community, and
- we will send her a note telling her of your gift in her honor.
Join us and acknowledge those special women that make you smile when you think of them and all they mean to you.
