1. Private donation
from the Gesneriad Society members:
Betsy Gottshall, treasurer of the Liberty Bell chapter of the Gesneriad
Society in Philadelphia, presented a donation of
$150 to the GCCC at the 2018 Gesneriad Society annual Convention in Framingham, Massachusetts.
The funds were raised when members of the Liberty Bell chapter spoke at their
monthly meetings and instead of receiving $50 for their presentation, took the
option of donating the funds to the GCCC. Stephen Maciejewski raised $100 from
his two presentations on “People, Places and Plants at the 2017 Gesneriad
Society Convention, Omaha, Nebraska” and for “Gesneriads at the
Philadelphia Flower Show.” Julie Bare
donated her $50 from her talk and demonstration on making and maintaining “Terrariums”.
2. Donation from the Gesneriad Society Members and Chapters(Oct,2017)
As you know, the
nursery of GCCC was hit by terrible floods in July this year. The ongoing work of all of the GCCC members and staff
was immensely affected because so much of the plant material, including:
leaf-cuttings, seedlings and suckers were nearly all destroyed and those
saved were all mixed up. After hearing about this bad news, Stephen
Maciejewski, gave a slide show report on it at the GS convention conservation meeting in July. Members of the Puget
Sound chapter of the Gesneriad Society, then
generously donated $ 500 to help deal with the flooding issued at the
GCCC.
Dee and
Bob stewart, members of the Buxton chapter The Gesnerid Sociiety,
Massachusetts, U.S.A. also made a very generous
donation of many Achimenes rhizomes.
Stephen
Maciejewski also brought over the $2100 donation which he raised from the
group trip last May for the GCCC.
Thanks
to The Gesneriad Society, the Puget Sound chapter of the Gesneriad
Society, Dee and Bob Stewart and Stephen Maciejewski!
