Milwaukee Florist, Welke's House of Roses, Roses For a Cure

Pink Roses from Milwaukee Florist, Welke's House of Roses will be handed out to all the breast cancer survivors walking in this Sundays Susan G Komen Milwaukee Walk for the Cure.

It is our third year the pink roses have been handed out at the finish line. This is just a little something that we do at Welke's in order to give back to the community that has blessed our family flower business so much. Roses and flowers in general can say more than words can express especially at difficult times.

The staff at Welke's House of Roses wants to encourage all Milwaukee residents to get out and support the Komen Foundation either by walking or donating to the cure. Just in case you don't think that this is a Milwaukee issue, 1300 women in Milwaukee will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer in 2009 alone. Sadly 260 women will die.

If you feel moved to help women that suffer from Breast Cancer and you are not able to walk for the cure, you may consider making a donation online: click here
