WHITE PLAINS, NY--(Marketwire - January 28, 2010) - Mrs. Bloom's Direct, an importer of
fresh-cut flowers and the only company offering a national fresh-cut flower
fundraising program that delivers beautiful blooms directly from growers,
launched their Friday Flowers program Friday, January 22, at the Mack-Cali
lobby located at 50 Main Street in White Plains, N.Y. Within just three
hours and with limited prior knowledge of Mrs. Bloom's presence in the
lobby that day, approximately 100 bouquets, dozen roses, tulips and other
flowers were sold to employees leaving the building for the weekend. Ten
percent of sales will be donated to the nearby Blythedale Children's
Hospital, a national leader in developing innovative, multi-disciplinary
inpatient and ambulatory programs, as well as a community resource for
children with a variety of medical concerns.
"We are very grateful to Mrs. Bloom's for providing area companies with
this unique opportunity to support Blythedale," said Betsy Bowman, Chief
Development Officer for Blythedale Children's Hospital. "This innovative
approach sets an example for other local companies that may be looking for
ways to lend a hand."
"We feel Blythedale's work is changing lives for the better as the hospital
is dedicated exclusively to the diagnosis, care and treatment of children
with complex medical and rehabilitative needs," said Ari Shapiro, VP of
Marketing at Mrs. Bloom's Direct.
With the above in mind, the innovative flower company approached Mack-Cali
with the Friday Flowers program, and worked with them to achieve the goal
of selling a gorgeous array of long-lasting flowers at superb prices,
offering employees a convenient amenity that helps support those in need.
Mrs. Bloom's is excited to expand their Friday Flowers program at other
Mack-Cali buildings as well as the Royal Bank of Scotland in Stamford,
Conn., and is eager to establish additional partners to create higher
revenue for Blythedale Children's Hospital. For more information, contact
