Reuse Recycle and get green with Ashland Addison Florist in Chicago

ASHLAND
ADDISON FLORIST CATCHES THE ‘GREEN’ BUG
Family-owned florist launches first ever reuse/recycle campaign for Chicagoland
– gives out green plants and makes donations to local charities

We’re continuing our first ever reuse/recycle campaign for Chicagoland—and giving out green plants and making donations to local charities!

“One of the things we hear is that people have vases, baskets or ceramics from flowers they have received piling up in their basements, under their sinks, in closets… and they feel guilty just throwing them out,” says Bill Sheffield, president and owner. “It’s time to help out and get these glass, wicker and ceramic containers reused or recycled!  So, in exchange for people turning in their old stuff, we’re giving out green plants to bring more ‘green’ into homes.  Plus, we wanted to do more, so we’re making financial ‘green’ donations to important local organizations.”

Being Green Has Never Been Easier!
It’s so easy!  Simply bring your glass, ceramic and wicker containers to any Ashland Addison Florist location.  For every five reusable containers brought in at one time, customers will receive a green plant and will have a $3.00 donation made on their behalf to one of the following charities.

*Misericordia Heart of Mercy    www.misericordia.org
*Lynn Sage Cancer Research Foundation   www.lynnsage.org
*Children’s Memorial Hospital www.childrensmemorial.org
*Rush University Medical Center  www.rushcampaign.org
*Resurrection Lutheran Church   www.thenightministry.org
*St. Eugene School, Chicago, IL  www.st-eugene.org
*The Willows Academy www.willows.org
*New!  New!  New!  Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago www.ric.org
Edgebrook School www.edgebrook.cps.k12.il.us/index.htm


Check back for updates!   More to come!

Ashland Addison Florist will evaluate each container to see if it is able to be reused and filled perfectly with amazing fresh blooms again.  For containers that are not able to be reused, they will be recycled. 

**To date, almost 80% of the vases received have been reused!  And hundreds of dollars have been raised for local charities!**
