Why Blooms that Brighten?

Blooms That Brighten, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to improving quality of life through flowers. Our Flower Therapy™ program brings together volunteers with senior care community residents to create and handcraft flower arrangements. This program engages these individuals in a cognitive and physical activity, which fosters brighter spirits and creates moments of kindness.

Flowers + Residents = SMILES
