Gleaful repurposes used floral arrangements into individual bouquets for patients with serious illnesses, brightening days and diverting waste. This may seem like a small gesture, but it has the potential to lead to both improved outlook and actual health outcomes through empirically established pathways. While Gleaful cannot make flower farming more efficient, we can extend their usefulness. As we begin to contend with models of holistic health, Gleaful offers a concrete step forward as well as an opportunity to start important conversations.Guided by their passions for public health, policy, and creativity, John and Jeremy knew they could make a difference. By partnering to create Gleaful, they envision a world with more compassionate healthcare and less waste. The shortest distance between two people is a smile; we hope to bridge the gap with a flower.
