Cicero Kiwanians at Work on Annual Flower Sale

Spring is in the air, and so is the spirit of giving! The Kiwanis Club of Cicero has officially kicked off its 2025 Annual Flower Sale Fundraiser—an event that not only brightens gardens but also helps grow brighter futures for children throughout the community.

Orders for flowers are being accepted now through Saturday, April 19, with a vibrant selection of blooms sure to enhance any yard, porch, or patio just in time for Mother’s Day. Flower pickup is scheduled for Friday, May 2, from 2:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Cicero Park Pavilion.

“This is our biggest fundraiser of the year, and every single petal supports a purpose,” said Dottie Carlson, committee chair. “All proceeds go directly into programs that benefit the kids in our community—from literacy efforts to scholarships to local youth initiatives.”

The Flower Sale has long been a staple event in Cicero, bringing neighbors together while supporting the Kiwanis mission of serving the children of the world – starting right here at home.

“We’re proud of how this sale continues to grow year after year,” Carlson added. “It’s not just about flowers – it’s about hope, support, and community spirit.”

Those wishing to place an order can do so by contacting a Kiwanis Club member or visiting the club’s website (www.cicerokiwanis.org) for order forms and details.

Whether you’re looking to spruce up your garden or simply want to make a difference, the Kiwanis Flower Sale is a beautiful way to give back.
