Winston Flowers "Charity in Bloom" program supports Pine Street Inn

Starting July 1st, as part of Winston Flowers “Charity in Bloom” program, customers who order specially-made floral arrangements will help support Pine Street Inn since (20%) of all proceeds from the sale of July's “Charity in Bloom” arrangement will benefit Pine Street.

With a mission to end homelessness, Pine Street Inn is New England’s largest resource for homeless men and women, serving 1,600 individuals daily and 11,000 annually. From street outreach and emergency shelter to job training and permanent supportive housing, Pine Street Inn provides short-term remedies and long-term solutions to help people rebuild their lives. For more information, visit www.pinestreetinn.org.
