Chairman’s Message
Chairman
Norman T. White
White’s Nursery &
Greenhouses, Inc
Chesapeake, Virginia
I am pleased to provide the American Floral
Endowment’s Annual Report for fiscal
year 2004.
I would like to thank each of you for your
support of the American Floral Endowment.
I have served on the Endowment Board of
Trustees since 1993, and during this time
I have seen many changes within the
industry. Throughout a changing industry
the Endowment has remained focused on
its mission and the Board of Trustees
work diligently to be good stewards of
your contributions.
The following pages demonstrate how your
gifts have strengthened the industry. Your
contributions open doors to new possibilities;
enable the discovery of new scientific
research facts; provide vital floral consumer
purchasing behavior trends; allows students
to enrich their learning experience through
hands on training; encourage young people
to be involved in the floral industry; and
prepare students to be future leaders,
responsible citizens, and exceptional
employees in our global community.
Finally, the contributions you made this
past year have reached record breaking
heights. Thank you for continuing to
support the Phone-A-Thon, Endowment
Dinner, and Tribute fundraising programs.
Major gifts continue to play a vital role in
achieving new fundraising goals.
I am pleased to present the following pages
of highlights. I hope after reading this report
you will have a greater understanding of
the far-reaching impact of your
contributions, as they stand alone, as well
as in combination with those of others.
Thank you for your continued investment
in the future of the industry.
Sincerely,
Norm White
