In early December I shared a story about our first ever traceable Memorial Donation as a result of our Mission. A Memorial Donation is one given in someone’s memory, and we call it a result of our Mission because the family of the deceased remembered their loved one receiving flowers from RAF while in a healthcare facility. [...]
We recently visited a facility that we have not ever delivered to before. We always really enjoy those because it is so much fun to share our mission with a new set of residents! We received a very nice note from Lauren Hall, the Healthy Lifestyles Director. Thank you so very much for all the [...]
One of the things that we do not lack for around here are heartwarming stories. This one certainly fits the bill! What makes this story special is that Patti knew to thank everyone and everything that went into her delivery. For her bouquet to be delivered there had to be a floral donor, a vase [...]

This past weekend was the launch of our 2nd Annual Fall Bulb Sale. This morning I had two emails in my box which I would like to share. The first comes from our founder relaying a story from Mike & Liz, long time volunteers with RAF, who worked the afternoon shift at the Turkey Creek [...]
As a result of the overwhelming support of the community in the form of floral donations Random Acts of Flowers sometimes finds ourselves with more flowers than we can process in a timely manner. During these times of overrun we have begun to deliver buckets of flowers and boxes of vases to assisted living facilities [...]
