Frequently Asked Questions

Who We Are

What is Random Acts of Flowers?

We improve the emotional health and well-being of individuals in healthcare facilities by delivering re-purposed flowers, encouragement, and personal moments of kindness. We gather flowers from the floral industry, as well as local companies, florists, grocery stores, funeral homes, and events like weddings and memorial services. Our volunteers turn these flowers into beautiful bouquets and deliver them to those facing injury, illness, and the aging process every week in our community.

Random Acts of Flowers serves Knoxville, Tampa Bay, and Indianapolis and is always on the lookout for new communities for delivering hope.
