The American Floral Endowment's 2024 Fundraising Campaign
In an effort to continue to increase support for important research, education and other floriculture programs to advance in the industry, the American Floral Endowment has launched its annual fundraising campaign running May 15 - June 28 with a goal of $100,000 in industry support.
The Endowment's annual summer campaign theme touts the overall tagline of R.I.S.E., representing AFE’s core programs: Research, Internships, Scholarships and Education for the floral industry. These resources are vital to the ongoing growth of floral; the Endowment is welcoming the industry to R.I.S.E. up to help fund ongoing success and support for all segments, ages and levels.

- Internships to recruit tomorrow’s leaders and provide hands-on training for young professionals.
- Scholarships to foster education and empower the next generation to choose careers in this industry.
- Education to provide ongoing learning opportunities and knowledge to all industry members at all levels.
