The Rose Garden Program


What is Rose Garden?


The Rose Garden is the Daughters of the Nile Foundation’s official Supreme Session fundraiser.  The Rose Garden is also a reminder to honor and keep in memory those special people who “Made a Difference” in your life.  The best part is, you don’t have to attend Supreme Session to participate. In fact, you don’t even have to be a member of the Daughters of the Nile!  For just $5, Daughters of the Nile Members, parents, spouses, friends, and supporters can give a Rose to anyone they love and care for.  These gifts not only create a spectacular Rose Garden, but they are also an investment to further the purposes of the Daughters of the Nile Foundation, helping to ensure that the Shriners Children’s™ have the funds to continue to offer medical treatment, educational support, research, and care for the children without placing a burden on the families of the patients.

When you give a rose, you not only honor someone, but you also impact the medical care that the children receive at the Shriners Children’s™.  When you share your thoughtfulness with your Daughters of the Nile family, you empower the Foundation to continue to make “Million Dollar” donations to Shriners Children’s™ and help make a difference in a child’s life.

How it Works

For just $5, you may purchase a rose in celebration, honor, or memory of a special person.  The honoree will receive an email letting them know you sent them a Rose and their name will be added to the Rose Garden display at Supreme Session!

When you receive your donation confirmation, you can download the Rose Garden Image and paste it into an email to a Daughter of the Nile member, your parents, spouse, friends, and supporters or share it on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.  Share the Nile Love!

Raising the Stakes

Temple competitions are in place for next year.  To participate, donors simply enter the Temple Name and Number you wish to support when purchasing Rose(s) online or during a Supreme Session. The top contributing Temples to the Rose Garden will be announced at the conclusion of each Daughters of the Nile Supreme Session.

How the Seed Was Planted

Thanks to the generosity of Daughters of the Nile Members, since its inaugural year in 2017 the Rose Garden contributions have totaled $23,700.  This year, parents, spouses, family members and friends can join in the fun and purchase Roses!

Why Roses?

Not only is a White Rose used as Daughters of the Nile flower, it stands for so much more!  In early tradition, the White Rose was used as a symbol of true love and of also associated with honor and reverence.  This symbol exemplifies the love and honor of donors who make a donation to thank the special people in their life.   If every Daughter of the Nile gives just one Rose, we would raise more than $125,000.   Multiply that for every parent, spouse, or friend who buys a Rose and you can imagine the impact!  Thank you for helping create a spectacular display of love, thoughtfulness, and Daughters of the Nile friendship.
