While we have ample opportunities to give to family and friends this season, don’t forget about one more. Giving Tuesday, a global initiative to promote charitable giving across the world, falls on November 28, just a day after Cyber Monday and the previous week’s super spendy Black Friday. We at Central Square Florist offer a unique opportunity to give back to our Boston community, and it’s available all year long.

Through our Helping Hands program, we enable you to extend the gift of flowers into a much broader act of giving. And it’s easy. As you’re purchasing your flowers online with us (and if you’re looking for the perfect arrangement to send that special someone, consider Sunflowers in White Glass Vase, a cheerful antidote to the season’s darker days), simply click the Helping Hands drop-down menu. It will reveal a long list of our community’s most deserving institutions and organizations. Select your favorite, and Central Square will make sure a donation goes right to them.

There’s so much to feel grateful for this season, and we want to give you one more. By supporting our community’s most valuable programs and services, we create opportunities for those who need it most. Our gift of flowers becomes a larger gesture of giving. Call on us at Central Square Florist this November 28.
