Teleflora, Director Sune Sorensen, The Wonderful Agency Make A Wish and A Snowman For The Holiday Season
Director Sune Sorensen of production company Hey Baby teamed with The Wonderful Agency on this lovely story to ring in the holiday spirit for floral delivery service Teleflora.

Donations are triggered when consumers order qualifying seasonal bouquets on Telefloraโs website, like the Teleflora and Make-A- Wish collaboration posts on Instagram or Facebook, or through an in-person activation at Rockefeller Center in New York City, where passersby can build a snowman on December 11. Teleflora will donate $10 to Make-A-Wish for every snowman built during the... Read More
