We take four giant Ariel paperwhite bulbs, tuck them into a luminous green ceramic pot with decorative moss covering the soil. You add a little water and magic happens. You'll get a beautiful display of fragrant, crisply white flowers in clusters of 8-12 in just a few weeks. But something just as wonderful occurs elsewhere, out of sight. A little boy in Atlanta named Patrick Chance, who is battling a rare, aggressive cancer gets your support.
This tough 5 year old was diagnosed with neuroblastoma two years ago and since then has undergone surgery, ten cycles of chemotherapy and a dozen rounds of radiation. The current treatment for this disease is painful and, well, just plain awful. Work is underway to develop new, more effective, less invasive treatments. By choosing to give Patrick's Paperwhites this season you join with Easy to Grow Bulbs and become a part of the battle against this childhood cancer. 10% of the purchase price of each gift pot of Patrick's Paperwhites will be donated to Press On: The Patrick R. Chance Fund for Neuroblastoma Research, a named fund of CURE Childhood Cancer, Inc. This will benefit Patrick and all the children like him that are battling to win the fight against neuroblastoma. For more information about Patrick and kids like him, go to www.PressOnFund.org . Editor's note: Press On is not affiliated in any way with the political organization Move On.
