This month we have paired our Just Roses bunch with this month's charity, 300 Blankets. We hope that a bright bunch of roses will brighten someone's day, just like the blankets provided to people in need in Melbourne. A bright bunch of Roses are a nice reminder that Spring is here.
Proceeds: 10% of Just Roses sales during September

300 Blankets provides the warmth of blankets and friendship to people experiencing homelessness in Victoria.
According to the latest statistics, there is almost 23,000 people experiencing homelessness in Victoria. With family and domestic violence the leading cause of homelessness, there is an important social responsibility to tackling the issue. To make an impact, 300 Blankets focus on providing warmth to the most vulnerable people in our community, educating the wider community about homelessness, and creating volunteering opportunities for everyday Victorians to personally make a positive change.
300 Blankets operates through partnership with a wide range of support groups and charities to make a significant difference. Volunteers through 300 Blankets participate in various community initiatives including foot patrol outreach programs, providing direct support for people who need it most. Since 2012, their fundraising activities have so far resulted in providing over 7000 blankets to people experiencing homelessness throughout Victoria.
Together we can keep our community warm.
