SAUCC and Big Brothers Big Sisters have formed a unique partnership to help youth in our community. For more than 15 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters has conducted an annual Mother’s Day Plant Sale to raise funding for their youth mentoring programs in the Quad Cities. The campaign consists of pre-order (ordered plants prior to May 1) and day of sales (plants purchased May 11 ^- 13).

This year, BBBS is extending an invitation to organizations to benefit from their event. Supporters of SAUCC who order through the BBBS plant sale will have 50% of their purchase directed to SAUCC!  We have the opportunity to raise more than $2,000-$3,000 through this unique partnership. 

This will provide much needed financial support to our organization and help a worthy and important organization in our community. 

The sale offers more than 15 varieties of annual bedding plants in more than 60 different colors. The sale also offers hanging baskets, geraniums and wave petunias. A unique element to the pre-ordering process is free delivery to your home or business for orders over $100.

You have two opportunities to participate in this partnership:

1. Complete the plant sale order form provided and return to SAUCC.

2. Order online: Your online order will offer you the opportunity to indicate your participation through the SAUCC partnership.

The pre-order deadline is May 1^st.

You can view samples of the plant types and colors at the BBBS Web site. 

BBBS is also available to answer any questions you might have about plant types or event logistics.
