Want to support our mission but not interested in arranging flowers? This one is for YOU! Our Overland Park location is looking for assistance with deliveries and pickups. A normal-sized vehicle is fine for this, you do NOT need to have a van or truck.
Bouquet deliveries are done on Monday afternoons, picked up from our workspace in plastic tubs and deliverd to nearby senior living facilities (appointments are made ahead of time for you).
Empty vase pickups are done on Thursday afternoons, picked up in plastic bins from those same facilities and returned to our workspace for wash and reuse.

We are a 501c3 100% volunteer organization. We repurpose and recycle gently used flowers in the Greater Kansas City Metro Area. Flowers are generously donated from weddings, memorial services, charity, corporate and private events, florists, and retailers. Our volunteers recut, refresh, and reuse those flowers to create beautiful bouquets that we deliver to brighten someone's day. We work hand-in-hand with healthcare, hospice, senior resident, and social service communities throughout our city to touch people's lives.
