Unfortunately there are not enough donations anymore to keep the project for a weekly flower arrangement for Michael alive :( which is pretty sad since there are millions of fans out there and even if only a few percent would donate just cents we could keep it going....

I think this is very sad... of course I do understand that not everyone can donate or saves money for xmas or donates for charities etc.

but really, with so many millions of fans out there..it should be possible to afford a few flowers...

Special message about the weekly flower deliveries:

Since donations have dramatically slowed down in the past few weeks, we will start to deliver flowers on a monthly or even 6 times per year on very special occasions. The burden has been on just a handful of donors and I just cannot continue to ask for donations from these few when hundreds and perhaps even thousands of people enjoy these weekly flower deliveries for Michael and honestly do not think it's fair. I understand many have financial obligations so I feel this is the right decision. If funds start to grow again then it won't be a problem to start delivering flowers on a weekly basis as we have been doing so ever since May 2010, but until then next flower delivery will be at Christmas. I'm sorry to disappoint, if moved to donate please do so, I will do everything in my power to keep these deliveries going but will not ask for any one person to donate a substantial amount, this is not right.

So, with this said, I thank you and everyone for supporting this group for the past 1 1/2 years, its been wonderful and very fulfilling to say the least. I know we all love Michael and want to see him surrounded with flowers everyday, but we have to face reality that we cannot do this without a group effort. If enough donations come in per week, you will see the flower delivery posted here on facebook as usual with your messages. It's all for L.O.V.E. that we have made it this far♥♥♥♥" https://www.facebook.com/groups/134700266558710/ "his group was created for the sole purpose of keeping Michael's favorite flowers by his resting place forever. With only a small donation of $5 per month, we can ensure that Michael's burial site is always filled with fresh flowers every day of the week. Because of his loving and
devoted fans from all over the world, this program was born May 13, 2010 in order to allow his fans a way to be close to him and hopefully bring some kind of closure and peace to their heart♥

The fourth Friday of every month, hand made greeting cards will be made up by me with the names of the donors and their personal message to Michael. They will accompany the flower arrangements that are to be taken inside to the Great Mausoleum to be placed by Michael's crypt.

VERY IMPORTANT: Please make sure to e-mail me your personal message to Michael during each card making month. So that would be just after the card and flower delivery of the month, then at least a couple days prior to the next fourth Friday of month delivery in order to give me time to add your message to the card(s). If there is not enough space at Paypal's message box, just email me the whole message at my email. Just make a note in the box that you will send me the entire message through email. The reason why I am asking this of everyone is because it is just too difficult going back to old messages and replace them with the new messages. It is almost impossible to do this, but only takes a moment of your time to send your message for the month. If anybody has any questions regarding this, feel free to email me, and I'll get back to you right away. Thank you.

Photos will be taken by me and posted here every Friday. Members are welcome to mail a personalized card and I will make sure it gets to Michael.

If possible, be sure you choose personal and gift as the paying method. Thank you very much for your continued support in this wonderful journey we have all found ourselves on. With the love. L*O*V*E*.

Please e-mail me at sandy@sunflowersformichael.net if you have any questions. Paypal and my personal e-mail address are the same.

ALL DONATIONS GO TO THE PURCHASE OF MICHAEL'S FLOWERS. GLENDALE FOREST LAWN FLOWER SHOP DELIVERS THEM ONTO HOLLY TERRACE WHERE I TAKE PHOTOS AND POST THEM HERE ON FB EVERY FRIDAY BEFORE THEY ARE TAKEN INSIDE TO MICHAEL. I DO NOT PERSONALLY DELIVER THE FLOWERS AND CARDS TO MICHAEL. NO ONE IS ALLOWED INSIDE THE GREAT MAUSOLEUM EXCEPT FL STAFF AND PERSONAL.

Accepted gifts: cards (any Size), soft stuffed animals and other small items that are not breakable, NO large items will be allowed inside Holly Terrace.

WHAT HAPPENS TO OUR CARDS and GIFTS AFTER ONE WEEK? I simply do not know. In the past, FL would gather the cards and gifts and mail them to the family or the family would come by and pick them up. Things have changed over the months. What I will say, is that our flowers and cards do go inside to Michael and this is in itself and honor and blessing that we should all be grateful for.

If someone would like a personal bouquet, the cost ranges from $10-$20.00, and if you want vase, greens, and ribbon, please add $10.00. Email me about any questions. I'm more than willing to help you order exactly what you need.

SPECIAL OCCASIONS: Every major Holiday, I will plan a large festive display of flowers for Michael on Holly Terrace. If you would like to purchase your own arrangement or bouquet, please contact me a couple weeks prior to that day.

APPROXIMATELY 1 month prior to special holiday/anniversaries, I will put out an announcement so people can send in their cards for Michael to have adequate time for items to get to the U.S. from overseas.

I would love to donate with money orders only, is that possible? thank you.
 
Not that I dont care about Michael behind surrounded by flowers, but I give all the money I can to charities. To me, and I insist it's just personal, I'd rather pay to help someone live better, or just live, than to pay for flowers to be left to die.
 
i didn't know this even existed. i understand that people can't always afford to donate. but i'm sure when they do have some money left they will

i understand that... I am only a student and a single mother and mostly whenever possible I donate to charities for children and animals...
BUT: with millions of fans outside... one can only donate 50 cent...that makes a flower, too...
i usually save my exchange money, cents...from my purse and put it in a box and from time to time I donate it to them
 
I'm simply broke but I wanna help. I'll get back to this later today.
 
What would say $30 AUD buy?
I'll donate when I get paid!

"If someone would like a personal bouquet, the cost ranges from $10-$20.00, and if you want vase, greens, and ribbon, please add $10.00." please send your questions, greetings, letters, card etc. to sandy@sunflowersformichael.net she can also show you the photos taken each friday when flowers have been delivered over the past two years. but u can also just contribute to our weekly bouquets by giving just one dollar a month or whenever you like...it actually would be "easy" to keept things going I guess people just soemhow forgot about it....imagine fans from all over the world giving just cents..would be enough to go on... :)
