Random Acts of Flowers, an organization that recycles and repurposes flowers with a volunteer team that delivers bouquets to health care facilities across the country, recently hit two milestones.

First, Random Acts of Flowers formed an exclusive partnership with FTD and ProFlowers, the floral brands of The FTD Companies, Inc., a premier floral and gifting company.

In addition to monetary support and weekly floral donations, FTD and ProFlowers will contribute a portion of the proceeds to the organization from sales of “Random Acts of Flowers” bouquets featured at www.ftd.com/raf and www.proflowers.com/randomactsofflowers between Nov. 12, 2015 and Dec. 31, 2015.

Second, and perhaps even more significant, FTD employees and Random Acts of Flowers volunteers and staff recently delivered the nonprofit’s 100,000th bouquet at Brookdale Lake View, a senior care facility in Chicago. FTD Companies, Inc.’s CEO Rob Apatoff presented a $30,000 check to Random Acts of Flowers to support their mission to recycle and repurpose flowers to deliver beautiful bouquets and moments of kindness.

“FTD is committed to inspiring and delighting people during life’s important moments, while also doing our part to support the communities in which we live and operate,” Apatoff says.

“Giving fresh, beautiful flowers can really make a positive, meaningful impact on someone’s life. We are honored to be a large part of the Random Acts of Flowers mission of delivering beautiful bouquets and moments of kindness.”

“The simple gesture of giving flowers creates a moment of inspiration and smiles. Our vision for improving the emotional health of the community with flowers is much stronger now due to the support of FTD and ProFlowers,” says Larsen Jay, CEO of Random Acts of Flowers. “We couldn’t be more thrilled to have them on board as our national floral partners.”
