There will also be plants and flowers available at Children’s of Alabama from 8 a.m-1 p.m. and at Brookwood Medical Center from 10a.m.-2:00 p.m. Flowers will be sold outside under a tent at both locations.
YWCA Junior Board members, staff and community volunteers will be on hand to help shoppers select the perfect flowers for their mothers and other special women, teachers or friends.

The YWCA KIDS Korner is the city’s only childcare facility for the area homeless families. Since 1989 the program has provided quality care to over 2,000 infants, toddlers and preschoolers who live in area homeless shelters. The program is free to parents and helps them to find work, participate in job training programs or seek housing.
