More than 45,000 women and children spend each Mother’s Day in domestic violence shelters. Each year JWI's Flower Project initiative sends bouquets of flowers, financial literacy resources, and a kids craft kit to 250 shelters across the U.S. on Mother’s Day.

On May 2nd, join us for “You Grow, Girl!,” our virtual event benefitting the Flower Project! We’ve partnered with Party’n with Plants, a woman-owned business, to teach us how to create and care for our own terrariums.

This event is for women of all ages, so invite the special women in your life to join us! Celebrate the important women in your life, and support the Flower project, all while creating something that will last.

If you’d like to create your own terrarium, we encourage purchasing this Zen Terrarium from Party’n with Plants (10% of proceeds will be donated back to JWI!) . We recommend purchasing kits before April 21st so the materials will arrive before our event.

You can also create your terrarium by purchasing the materials on your own. The suggested materials are:

• Glass Bubble Vase (3.5 in or 4.9 in)

• Dirt

• Spanish Moss

• Activated Charcoal

• Succulents

• Decorative Rocks

This event will start at 4:00 p.m. ET/1:00 p.m. PT on May 2nd. All donations made through this event support JWI’s Flower Project. You can purchase multiple tickets to invite the women in your life by multiplying the cost of a ticket, or make an additional donation that will help a young woman purchase their terrarium kit* who may not be able to do so otherwise.

Suggested donation amounts:

$25 - one young women’s ticket and one Flower Project eCard

$40 - one regular ticket and one Flower Project eCard

$75 - one event ticket, one Flower Project eCard, and one sponsored* terrarium

And as always, you can support JWI’s Flower Project through a direct donation, or by sending Mother’s Day paper cards or eCards.
