So sad to hear about the closing of Random Acts of Flowers.
I have donated many vases. Every time I would go and drop off the vases it made me so happy to see all the volunteers pouring Love into the arrangements being made.
I wish you all success in wherever your next endeavor takes you !!!
Warm Wishes,
Barbara McCormick

So sorry to hear this! Thank you Random Acts of Flowers for all your years of great work and brightening people's lives. We did vase collections at Hillview Middle School and the students were very inspired by your work.

So sad to hear this. I’m a nurse at Stanford Hospital. Flowers from Random Acts of Flowers meant so much to our patients and really brightened their days. We will miss them. Thank you RAOF for all the flowers you’ve given to our patients!

I'm sad to see Random Acts of Flowers go, what a wonderful organization! On a darker note, how many people have had to leave the area who have been here for generations, because they can't afford to live here anymore? Where is our affordable housing element? Are we well on our way to segregation my income....again?

Perhaps some computer whiz could develop an Ap connecting a "cottage industry" of would be florists to other elements of the endeavor.

Spacesforgood.org is a new website like an Airbnb for nonprofits - it's only just started - but maybe there's space there.
