Using this option requires no fees from the amount donated and the fund realizes more of your intended gift. If you use this option, please forward a copy of the email the Giving Fund sends to you to charbeson@cf-cc.org. This will enable us to track your gift and ensure it is recorded appropriately.
The CFCC Memorial Rose is a convenient, cost-effective way to honor or remember a loved one and to give eternal tribute. Memorial Roses are $50 each: for local delivery only. The rose is easy to display, retain as a keepsake, or store for future generations. It is silk or fabric; the vase is glass or porcelain and comes with a card or letter for display. Anyone can give one of these roses for any reason by contacting the CFCC office at (812) 365-2900 or by emailing charbeson@cf-cc.org. A portion of this amount is tax-deductible, according to the IRS. This portion of the money is given to an endowed fund held at the CFCC so that all generations to come may benefit as an act of tribute.
