A Valentines Gift of Gratitude for Nurses 💝
🌐 Roses4Nurses.Eventbrite.com
Volunteer on 2/13 or Pick Up & Deliver on 2/14 ✅

HOUSTON, TX — Houston Millennials proudly presents the 4th Annual Roses initiative, a community tradition centered on gratitude, service, and intentional appreciation.

Each year, the Houston Millennials committee votes on who the roses are dedicated to, based on where gratitude is most needed in our city. For the first time in our four year history, the committee unanimously voted to dedicate this year’s roses to nurses.

Nurses show up for Houston every single day carrying the weight of long shifts, emotional strain, and life-or-death responsibility. They care for strangers at their most vulnerable moments, often putting their own exhaustion, fear, and family time second. This initiative exists to slow the city down long enough to see that sacrifice, honor it, and say thank you in a way that is calm, personal, and deeply human

This is not a drop in event.
Every rose has a destination.

Participants may pick up a rose only with a delivery plan.

• Roses are prioritized for hospital and healthcare facility deliveries
• If you personally know a nurse, you may participate with a hard RSVP, including the nurse’s name or facility

The purpose is simple
Personally hand the rose to a nurse and say thank you.

• Each RSVP represents one appreciation rose
• Roses are limited based on availability
• All participants are expected to know where their rose is going
• This is a rain or shine event, as preparation and pickup are indoors
