Blooming Basket Fundraiser

By Linda Kennel

The Blooming Basket Fundraiser to benefit JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund) will be held on Saturday, May 7 in the parking lot of Advance Auto Parts, corner of 18th Avenue and 38th Street in Rock Island.  This one day event will begin at 9 am with beautiful hanging baskets, Amish baked sweet rolls and home made dog treats for sale.  All proceeds will be donated to JDRF to help fund continued research to find a cure for Type 1 diabetes.  Last year sales totaled over $8,000, all donated to JDRF.

Please come out on Saturday, May 7 to support this fundraiser and get beautiful flowers and delicious sweet treats for Mother's Day.
