Amaryllis 2009

Amaryllis 2009

Now that spring has finally arrived, it’s time to celebrate by thinking about our signature Amaryllis plants coming into bloom. This annual fundraiser raises over $100,000 each year and provides much needed funding. With your support – and the dedication of other Amaryllis volunteers like you –our Amaryllis fundraiser raises critical funds for research, services, and education in the fight against Huntington disease.
Enter To Win!The 2009 Amaryllis campaign is well underway. To build momentum for this critical fundraising program, HSC is currently inviting people to participate on this year’s Amaryllis “team”! Please consider joining the Amaryllis Team and enter for your chance to win a $100 gift certificate at a local nursery. Orders can be placed by visiting the HSC website at

Place An Order The online order form is both secure and efficient, making it easy to place order for yourself, family and friends. Just visit the HSC website to place an online order, or send an e-mail to amaryllis@huntingtonsociety.ca or phone 1-800-998-7398. For those who have additional questions about the Amaryllis contest, feel free to contact us by phone or e-mail.
Growing Our CampaignOur goal this year is to “grow” the number of orders over last year’s total and raise more funds than ever before. Increasing your sales is quite simple – if you could sell just one additional kit to each person who bought an Amaryllis plant last year, you could maximize your order! Or join our corporate amaryllis campaign by identifying organizations that might be interested in selling amaryllis or giving them to prospective clients or loyal customers. Realtors, Financial Planners, Banks, and Insurance Agents all might be willing to give Amaryllis’ away as a gift to customers as it’s a win-win proposition. The client is thanked, the company that gave the amaryllis is thought of over the six week growing period, and Huntington disease wins as the more successful our campaign is the more will help to advance our efforts in research, services and education. Each time an order is placed for an Amaryllis kit, it brings us one step closer to finding a cure for HD.
Our boxed Amaryllis kits make wonderful gifts and come complete with one high-quality Orange Sovereign bulb, growing instructions, soil, pot, and saucer – all packaged in an attractive gift box. Bulbs can be planted immediately or stored in a cool, dry place for holiday gifts. Approximately six to eight weeks after planting, you’ll be rewarded with those signature orange-red blooms that are guaranteed to brighten any room!
Delivery Dates Amaryllis will begin to arrive during the week of October 12, 2009, can be ordered to sell in your community – and we can help you every step of the way – or you can simply order a kit or two for your own enjoyment. Deliveries to the location of your choice are available on Wednesdays, Thursdays or Fridays until December 4, 2009.
