Exclusive Sponsors of Mother's Day 2013 Announced!

Caregiver Volunteers of Central Jersey (CVCJ) and Narcissus Florals of Toms River have been named "Exclusive Sponsors of Mother's Day 2013" in a unique partnership blending business, philanthropy, and support of the non-profit organization serving the frail elderly of Ocean County since 1993. The partnership is in celebration of all women who have made a difference in our lives, but especially Mom's.   Narcissus is donating 10% of every Mother's Day order directly to CVCJ.   

 "We are thrilled to have Narcissus Florals as our newest business partner” said Sara Farley Brechka, Director of Development for CVCJ.  “Ken Malagiere and his Narcissus Team have a deep commitment to giving back to the community and a commitment to customer service, which are also hallmarks of CVCJ!  We are proud to be in this relationship" continued Brechka.

 In this non-traditional fund-raising activity, extending from now until May 12, 2013, 10% of every Mother’s Day order is donated directly to CVCJ. There are no questions or coupons to present, whether the order is sent around the corner or around the world.  Orders can be placed on-line at www.narcissusflorals.com, or call 732-281-0333. Narcissus Florals is located at the Seacourt Pavilion, 635 Bay Ave., Toms River, and has been serving the Jersey Shore area since 1985.

   “CVCJ welcomes business partners and this is the first time we are working with a florist.  Narcissus has been great to work with", said Sara Brechka. She further noted "Ken and his team are using their resources to reach out to the community too and we are certain of a successful fund-raising partnership.  I am hopeful that everyone contacts Narcissus for their Mother's Day flowers and supports CVCJ at the same time!"
