Did you know that 60% of flowers bought in the United States come from Colombia? Nearly 100,000 mostly female flower workers have been working 16- to 18-hour days for poverty-level wages to get us the flowers that thousands of people will buy today.

This Valentine’s Day, take action to support these flower workers in their struggle for fair wages, equal treatment, justice, and dignity!
