Invest in the Future of Floriculture
Your Contribution Makes a Difference!
We are an independent, nonprofit organization that funds research and programs to support advancements and growth within the floral industry. AFE has sponsored much of the modern research that benefits the industry, from funding studies on pest and disease control to new technologies, none of which would be possible without donors like you.
In our first 60 years, AFE has awarded over $20 million to the floral industry. Every contribution, no matter the size, will provide funding for essential floriculture programs, such as innovative research, hands-on internships, scholarships for undergraduate & post-graduate, and continuing education for current industry members.
Contributions in any amount are welcome at any time through cash, insurance policies, marketable real and personal property, stocks, bonds, and planned giving methods.
Monetary donations can be made online by clicking the Donate button below.
For gifts of $5,000 or more, we encourage you to consider donating via ACH or wire transfer. This helps minimize processing fees so that more of your contribution directly supports our industry programs. Please contact afe@endowment.org to request transfer instructions.
