During this holiday season, TES is hosting their annual Temporary Emergency Poinsettia for a Purpose sale which is going on now until the last poinsettia is sold.

“These huge beautiful poinsettias are a great way to celebrate the season while helping the community,” said Karen Jackson, Executive Director of Temporary Emergency Services of West Alabama.

According to the press release, when you purchase a $30 10-inch poinsettia the proceeds go directly into supporting your community by helping local individuals and families in desperate need.

Jackson said that the poinsettias also “make great gifts during the holiday season for family, friends, co-workers, clients and more. You can even choose to donate a poinsettia to a local school, church, retirement home or hospital.”
