It's that time of year again! Every winter holiday season, Collingwood round square does a poinsettia fundraiser. Everyone is encouraged to buy a beautiful poinsettia plant, as all proceeds will be donated to a charity of round square's choice. This year, the proceeds will go towards the Vancouver Rape Relief and Women's Shelter.
Order forms are due by November 25th, and you can find them here, or student volunteers have been handing forms out each morning at the drop off area (They're the ones wearing tinsel and poinsettia hats!). There was also a booth at the Fall Carnival, if you were there! People who don't go to Collingwood are also welcomed and encouraged to get a plant for the festive season, so feel free to tell your friends, family, and neighbours about this fundraiser.
There's 5 different plants for sale this year: a festive mixed planter ($30), a swirl planter ($25), a santa deco pot ($15), a 10" Poinsettia ($30), and a 6" Poinsettia ($10). The swirl planter and the festive mixed planter both have tropical greens in with the poinsettias, and for all flowers you can choose to have red, white or pink; with the 10" Poinsettia you can also choose tri-coloured.
For those who have ordered flowers, Pickup will be on the 3rd of December at the Morven Campus; Pickup times are on 8:00-8:25 AM, 1:20-2:00 PM, and
