Holidays are just around the corner. Make your holiday shopping easy, stress-free and donate to a worthy cause at the same time. Soroptimist International of Bend is offering fresh-from-Oregon-forests wreaths, centerpieces, garlands and more. The 40th Soroptimist Holiday Wreath & Evergreen Fundraiser begins September 20 and runs through October 28.
This year (2021), Soroptimist International (SI) of Bend and Soroptimist International are celebrating 100 years of dedicated service to women and girls in their quest to improve their lives and economic stability. Locally, SI Bend has been assisting financially needy women since 1943 to pursue additional skills, training and higher education. Every item purchased from this sale helps support the annual educational “Live Your Dream Award” and also funds many of the club’s donations to local nonprofits such as Bethlehem Inn, Family Access Network, The Loft, Dawn’s House, Beulah’s Place, Head Start and more.
Beautiful holiday creations from Teufel’s Holly Farm (established in 1890 in Oregon) are easily ordered via PayPal after viewing the choices at sibend.org. Holiday sales information is also available through e-mail at wreaths@sibend.org or by calling 541-420-3296.
Sales conclude on October 28, so please place your orders soon.
For local delivery, Soroptimist members, of course, continue to personally bring your order to your home after Thanksgiving.
