Community Involvement

We are proud to be responsible members of the community that has helped to make us successful.

Individually, the owners and staff of Brown's The Florist support many charitable and community organizations with our personal time and money. As a business, we have made a commitment to spend at least 50% of our annual advertising budget in direct support of organizations who are working to make our community stronger.

Over the past 24 months, the organizations listed below have been the benefactors of our assistance through floral donations, gift certificates and cash.

If you are working with a community organization which could benefit from our help, please send your request to your nearest Brown's The Florist, to the attention of Natasha Wasyliw, Marketing Manager or send an e-mail to natasha@brownsflorist.com.

Thanks for asking!
