Independence Day Campaign

This 4th of July Blossom is launching its Independence Day Campaign. As an independent nonprofit, Blossom depends on the financial support of our community to keep our center open? Fees for classes and support groups only cover 85% of our total operating costs. We need to raise $50,000 annually through contributions from individuals like you. Already this year we’ve raised $15,000 and need to raise an additional $10,000 by Labor Day to support the center. Please make your contribution of any amount today. Gifts are fully tax-deductible.

Thank you for your support.

Help Another, Help Yourself!

You are invited to bring your gently-used maternity/baby clothing and equipment to Blossom Monday through Friday from 10:00 am-1:00 pm. We collect and distribute them to families in need in our community.

From family to family...Thank you!

As a special triple bonus challenge to Blossom and our community, a donor will donate an additional $1 for every new eScrip registrant who signs up with Blossom by 9/30/2009.*

*For the first 100 registrants. Blossom does not track your spending, but receives donations from the companies based on purchases connected to the cards you register. You can track donations in monthly statements.
