Leona is a Haddonfield resident who started a non-profit called FORGET ME KNOT FLOWERS. The nonprofit’s mission is to share the love that flowers create by redesigning wedding reception flowers into bedside bouquets and distributing them to residents in hospitals, women’s shelters and care facilities throughout South Jersey. Leona and her team personally deliver the bouquets, giving them a chance to see firsthand how making connections through simple gestures like notes, flowers and storytelling uplifts the recipients of these beautifully repurposed arrangements. Reminding someone they are loved has a physical and emotional impact on people that need it most, like those dealing with loneliness, sickness, terminal illness, or injury.
