I have heard they are beautiful & 10 dollars from every order benefits CHD research. I know many send flowers for the holidays but it is good anytime.

 

 Please pass this on to family and friends, post on blogs etc.

Beginning May 2008, Ten Dollars of Every Floral Bouquet Purchased at
https://www.proflowers.com/CHF Will Support Research for Congenital Heart Defects

    LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill., May 5 /PRNewswire/ -- The Children's Heart
Foundation today announced a new partnership with ProFlowers(R) -- the
online fresh flower marketplace -- just in time for Mother's Day! Beginning
in May 2008, shoppers can visit https://www.proflowers.com/CHF and choose
from a variety of beautiful, fresh-from-the-field flower arrangements. Ten
dollars from each purchase will benefit The Children's Heart Foundation.

    "On behalf of the families of the 40,000 babies born each year with a
congenital heart defect, we want to thank ProFlowers(R) for their support,"
said William Foley, Executive Director, The Children's Heart Foundation.
"Sending flowers to the mothers and grandmothers in your life is a great
way to show your appreciation and celebrate their love -- and now it also
can help raise much-needed funding to find better treatments and, hopefully
someday a cure, for congenital heart defects."

    Every fifteen minutes a baby is born in this country with a congenital
heart defect. Congenital heart defects (CHD) are the number one birth
defect among all children born in America today. A CHD consists of an
abnormality in the structure of the heart that may have life-threatening
effects. There are 35 different types of CHDs, yet little is known about
the cause of most of them and there is not yet a cure for any of them.

    The Children's Heart Foundation is the country's leading organization
solely committed to congenital heart defect (CHD) research funding and is
comprised of parents, family members and friends of those affected by a
congenital heart defect. The goal of The Children's Heart Foundation is to
increase awareness, support the recently diagnosed through educational
materials and continue funding the most promising research to find better
treatments.

    All year long, supporters can purchase a wide variety of specialty
flowers to mark a loved one's birthday or anniversary, say thanks to a
special teacher or celebrate a new baby's arrival by visiting
https://www.proflowers.com/CHF. For every bouquet sold on the special
webpage, ProFlowers(R) will generously donate $10 to support The Children's
Heart Foundation

Thank you

Here's a thought for anyone traveling for Thanksgiving.  We usually make the 10 hour drive to MIL's so it's not easy to take a side dish or a hostess gift.  I always send her flowers so that they arrive the day before Thanksgiving.  She uses them for the table centerpiece.  I almost always get them from Pro Flowers and they are always gorgeous! 

Odering the CHD bouquet would be a beautiful centerpiece and would be a really easy way for those traveling for the holiday to give a little something to the hostess.
