Happy Anniversary Flower Angels!!! Flower Angels USA has benefited greatly from the kindness of others including our awesome floral partners: Trader Joes, Shaws Markets and many local brides and event planners. Our 501 (c) (3) charitable organization began in March 2014, and since that time has expanded its mission to include our differently-abled community, who have become an important part of our team. We have been blessed with many dedicated volunteers over our four years and are always happy to welcome new ones. There are so many ways for you to help. No matter what you can do – donate flowers or money – volunteer- there is a way for you to make a difference as we continue delivering random acts of love...recycling flowers, and warming hearts. Your kindness and support are appreciated!

On March 17-18 Flower Angels was pleased to once again be a part of the 60th Annual Hyannis Rotary Home Garden and Lifestyle Show, a spring tradition and a favorite of Cape Codders. This event is always an opportunity to inform the public about our very special organization while encouraging donations and highlighting volunteerism. Many interested parties stopped by to chat, donate, or thank us for the wonderful work being done on behalf of the elderly residing in care facilities on Cape Cod. Thank you to all the volunteers who shared their time and talent and all the visitors who stopped by. It was a wonderful weekend during a very snowy March. Thank you Angels for creating such lovely designs for our special March 16-17 event in Hyannis. Behind the Scenes Saturday was a great day at the Hyannis Rotary Club Home and Garden Show. We met a lot of new friends and said hello to many people who know about and love Flower Angels. Special thanks to the Rotary Club and everyone who helped make this day so successful including David Scanlon who organized and set up our incredible booth and to our Flower Angel Leprechaun, Joyce, who added a lot of joy to the show!

Spreading the Word................

The Chatham Garden Club March 20. Flower Angels often gets asked to speak and present what we do to a variety of organizations. It is a wonderful way to get the word out about our mission and how people in local communities on Cape Cod can support us by donating time or funds. Suzanne loves to take an angel along to demonstrate how we make our special teacup designs, and who better than Strell, the teacup designer extraordinaire! Thank you Chatham Garden Club for hosting Flower Angels! Your generosity is so appreciated. ❤

Stunning Work Over four years, the quality and nature of the floral designs reflects not only the quality of our volunteers, but the dedication to mentor, learn, and experiment using recycled container s and flowers. The outcome is stunning! All the photos in this issue were offered at the recent Home Garden and Lifestyle Show. I could not resist. For a donation, I was able to take home the lovely arrangement above. It was perfect for St. Patrick's Day and sits proudly on my kitchen island, a reminder of what has been accomplished: over 34,000 bouquets delivered and over 60,000 volunteer hours given in four years. Truly amazing! Deb B.
