If it were only that simple. Well – we're pretty darn close!
This year Lawrence Central is selling wreaths from Lynch Creek Farms and all the profits from the sales are going to the Rotary Foundation's END POLIO NOW campaign.
After 25 years of hard work, Rotary and its partners are on the brink of eradicating this tenacious disease, but a strong push is needed now to root it out once and for all. It is a window of opportunity of historic proportions. Reaching the ultimate goal of a polio-free world presents ongoing challenges, not the least of which is a hundreds of million dollar funding gap. Of course, Rotary alone can't fill this gap, but continued Rotarian advocacy like Lawrence Central's drive can help.
Our reality is that as long as polio threatens even one child anywhere in the world, children everywhere remain at risk and we're doing our part locally to help.
You can contact any of our members to purchase in person, wreaths are 39.95 and $10 of each sale goes to helping eradicate polio.
If you'd like to purchase online or something other than a wreath you can use this link http://bit.ly/LCRPolioPlus – It will direct you to the Lynch Creek Website and 25% of your purchase will come back to Lawrence Central to be sent to the Rotary Foundation.
The 26" Christmas wreaths are made with noble fir, juniper and incense cedar, topped off with ponderosa pine cones and your choice of a red or burgundy velveteen hand-tied bow. The price INCLUDES UPS ground shipping.

We're proud to do our part locally for this cause and we invite you to help us!
