Our Story
Our Story Evelyn's Flowers was founded in loving memory of Evelyn, a beautiful soul who fought breast cancer with grace and strength. She found deep joy in the simple beauty of flowers — tending her garden, displaying hanging plants on her patio, and lighting up whenever she received a bouquet. Daisies were her favorite. Though we lost Evelyn three years ago, her love of flowers lives on. This nonprofit was created in her honor — to carry that same joy and warmth to others who are facing their own battles, so no one ever has to feel forgotten.
Our Mission
To provide flowers to lonely adults and elderly patients in hospitals and nursing homes battling cancer.
Our Vision
No one should feel alone or forgotten while in the hospital, living in a nursing home, or undergoing treatment. Every person deserves to know they are seen, valued, and thought of.
Who We Serve
We serve lonely adults and elderly patients in hospitals and nursing homes — those who need a reminder that someone cares.
Programs & Services
The Happiness Cart
Our signature program brings free flower arrangements directly to patients. Volunteers wheel the Happiness Cart through hospitals and care facilities, delivering handcrafted bouquets to individuals identified by staff as lonely or in need of a little extra love. It’s a simple gesture with a powerful impact.

Become One of Evelyn’s Daisies
Daisies were Evelyn’s favorite flower — bright, simple, and capable of bringing a smile without saying a word. Our volunteers carry on that same spirit. As one of Evelyn’s Daisies, you’ll help deliver flowers, comfort, and human connection to patients in hospitals and nursing homes who need it most. It’s a small act that means everything to someone having a hard day.
