Would you like to do something nice for Mom or Grandma, and a
young girl in Tanzania as well? Help support the SEGA Girls School by purchasing an African Violet plant for Mother’s Day!

Each plant costs $10. 00. Net proceeds go to our sister school, the SEGA
School for Girls, providing an education to poor, marginalized, and at-risk girls in Tanzania. The SEGA School has been transforming the lives of these girls for 10 years, and Bigelow has been a strong supporter of their efforts.
African violets have long been associated with mothers and motherhood. For this reason, they have been a traditional gift to mothers in many cultures around the world. And they originated in the Uluguru Mountains of Tanzania, right near the SEGA School!

Please let your homebase teacher know how many plants you’d like to purchase by Friday, April 12th.

Order forms, with payment, must be received in homebase by Friday, May 10th, when plants will be available for pick-up – just in time for Mother’s Day!
