Thank you from our team at Bunny's Flowers in NYC and Doylestown, PA for an amazing, healthy, and safe year. Despite the year’s challenges, we are proud to announce that we had a successful FIRST year as an educational institution! Bunny’s Flowers is a 501c3 non-profit organization and you will receive a letter in your email to verify your tax deductible donation.
We have had a positive community impact and we will be continuing our educational program with Delaware Valley Universities online educational programming in the spring. We are looking forward to moving into our second year to continue a legacy of community development work that goes back over a century in the ancestors of its founders and in honor of our wonderful community in Bucks County, PA and New York, NY.
This program was inspired by the specific wish of Ricelle”Bunny” Grossinger to enhance the lives of children and families through environmental education in the garden.
Our Programs
Bunny's Flowers has a strong focus on mental health support and education, and we use flower gardening as a way to reach our clients. We work with all aspects of the community, children, and families to have a valuable experience with Bunny’s Flowers that they will remember for a lifetime. In 2020, we sent out flowers to people struggling with mental health issues with a personalized card that was hand written by one of our students, to teach the importance of giving the gift of flowers and a sweet message to brighten someone’s day. 🌸
One of our most effective launch programs, The Bunny’s Flowers “Create Your Own Home Garden” Program, was well received by the community. Children and their parents were able to start their own gardens with the education and plants they received from our program. They also received tools and continued support from our organization to help maintain a sense of mental well-being and success. We also used our state of the art ventilation system that is similar to the engineering specifications of scientific laboratory equipment to enhance our safe social distancing. We followed the same protocol that was implemented at doctors offices as far as no contact thermometers, mask wearing, and sanitization practices.
We are also proud to say we were able to provide support and monetary donations not only to our clients but also to other local non-profits such as Rachel’s Helping hands, Miracle Corners of the World, UNWRA USA National Committee, The Barn Nature Center Foundation , Crossfit Summa, Between Friends Outreach and a handful of other local organizations and businesses.
