The Rose Deliverers is a project to bring random acts of kindness onto the streets. Created by Naomi Chan, The Rose Deliverers (TRD) hopes to bring a small piece of joy into a random strangers day.
The rules are simple: give flower(s) to somebody you don't know. It can be on the city streets, in your school hallway, or even through the mail. Tag on an encouraging note and you've got yourself a TRD flower. Remember to do it politely, with a smile, and to mention in the note for them to "pay it forward" so that other people may experience the same joy!
Lastly, write that you're doing this with many others as part of The Rose Deliverers, as we hope to bring light into a stranger's day, not suspicion! (If you've got the time, feel free to tape a TRD design onto the message. A picture of these are located on the main page slideshow. Print the image and cut them out.)
But why are we creating this initiative? In the modern world we live in, we often forget that the people we merely coexist and never meet with have backstories that are beyond our wildest imaginations. Behind a smile, someone may be feeling something entirely different from what their outward appearance suggests. It's so easy to feel alone, so easy to feel weak, so easy to feel unhappy. So, the small act of giving someone a flower can be a way of saying "I care". Who knows, you may even strike up a lasting friendship.
Please, take part and be The Rose Deliverer, and you might just make someone's day.
