Help cure breast cancer one pink tulip at a time!
We are creating a pink tulip garden on the corner of Main Street
and Tuttle Road filled with 1000 pink tulip bulbs. Help us beautify
our community and raise breast cancer awareness. Your donation
to our pink tulip garden will help honor friends while fighting
cancer. You can make your donation in honor or in memory of a
friend or loved one. Funds raised will beneifit the Women's Cancer
Fund at Maine Cancer Foundation and help support cancer research
and patients programs here in Maine. 100% of these funds stay
in Maine. Help us beautify our community while raising awareness
and funds for Women's Cancer Research.
We will be planting between October 15-26. If you would like
