Best of all, each one of the tens of thousands of bouquets that What Cheer grows and delivers are completely free of charge."We want to blanket the state with flowers and create happiness and joy," says Erin Achenbach,What Cheer's farmer and head florist.What Cheer regularly delivers joy to people at local hospitals, food banks, senior centers, recovery centers and more-including AIDS Care Ocean State,which provides support to those affected by HIV.“Seeing the smiles on people's faces who weren't expecting it--who just came in to have a meeting with their case manager or take advantage of one of our programs--to just see this glow come off their faces is great,”says Stephen Hogan Jr.from AIDS Care Ocean State.Located in Providence’s industrial Olneyville neighborhood, What Cheer's flower beds lie on 2.7 acres that once housed a knife factory. And it's safe to say that the What Cheer crew is deserving of some flowers of their own: In May, the nonprofit was awarded a record-high$500,000 grant from the Environmental Protection Agency for its continued revival of a land once abandoned because of industrial pollution."Not only do we give this space back to the neighborhood by bringing life to space that' s quite literally dead," says Achenbach, “but we're an eco-landing spot with the ability to help local insect and bird populations, and that'll only make people's lives better.” What cheer, indeed!“What's good about a flower is that it doesn't need anything else," she adds. “Your only job when someone gives you flowers is to enjoy them.”4.What was the original purpose of What Cheer?
