Spreading Sunshine as we watch love grow!

Rays of Sunshine SCC began in 2025 with a goal of acknowledging widows in our area. We are in Sun City Center, Florida, a welcoming retirement community in Hillsborough County, about 30 miles south of Tampa. Our 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization’s Valentine’s Project demonstrates love & caring for widows by personally delivering them a lovingly created floral bouquet & gift.

Brightening Someone's Day

Being thought of is especially meaningful after losing a spouse. Our annual Valentine’s mission is to remember these individuals at a time of year when love is celebrated.  Rays of Sunshine SCC delivers volunteer-created floral arrangements with the purpose of bringing joy & reminding these community members they are cherished

Thank You 2026 Volunteers

On February 12, 2026 with the help of 44 volunteers, floral arrangements and gift bags were delivered to 98 widows in our community.

I just received the most beautiful flowers and gifts, and I am speechless and my heart feels so much love. I feel like I won an Academy Award or a medal at the Olympics. It is a feeling of someone caring… so much love.  Thank you

What a pleasant surprise that anyone would remember me. You are all angels.

My doorbell rang & I opened the door to two lovely people grinning ear-to-ear because they were surprising me with a lovely and thoughtful gift for Valentine’s Day. Thanks so much. You certainly made my weekend!

Wow & Thank You!  You have truly made my day.  From the bottom of my heart, thank you for remembering the widows in SCC.

I am overwhelmed by the kindness. It’s really wonderful to be thought of and treated so nicely.

I’m not sure how I became the lucky recipient of such a beautiful bouquet of valentine flowers and gifts but I sure appreciate it. Now that I’ve heard of your organization, I’m most impressed & would like to learn more about it. This is one of the nicest things that’s been done for me since I moved here alone 10 years ago.

I just want to thank all of the volunteers who absolutely made my day.
