How to Order Your Mums for Thanksgiving
The Rotary Club of Cornwall Sunrise is pleased to announce ‘Mums for Thanksgiving will be available again this year at $15 per florist quality plant delivered to an address of your choice the week before Thanksgiving. We are glad to be able to hold the price this year for this event that benefits many projects that support our community.
Plants are presold by Rotary members or online at https://www.zeffy.com/en-CA/ticketing/rotary-mums-fundraiser--2026 You can also send us an email or private message using our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/RotaryClubofCornwallSunrise or for a more personal approach, a phone call or email to an individual Rotarian is suggested. Any Sunrise Rotarian is happy to take your order.
This is our oldest fundraising activity! The Rotary Club of Cornwall Sunrise was chartered in January 1989 and we delivered the first ‘mums for Thanksgiving to friends and businesses in Cornwall the week before Thanksgiving 1989 (37 years ago). These beautiful chrysanthemums of assorted fall colours come in 6” pots with a coloured foil wrap. Although we try to accommodate special requests, we cannot promise that recipients will receive flowers of a specific colour.
The ‘mums are delivered to us in cases of 8 plants and then our members or friends of Rotary personally deliver the flowers to the recipients …. Seniors or family residences, businesses, etc. We deliver within the City of Cornwall, Akwesasne Territory (Cornwall Island only) and in S.D.& G.
Here is a partial list of important projects we have been able to help because of community support of our ‘Mums for Thanksgiving.
