			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the years, we have enjoyed employing &#8220;differently-abled&#8221; individuals from the Boulder community. We also enjoy the opportunity to work closely with the <a href="http://www.commfound.org/cultureofgiving/nonprofits/wat-business-services" target="_blank">Watshop</a> and Boulder County Enterprises, who also actively support the inclusion of individuals with disabilities within our community.</p>
<p>Bloomin&#8217; Flower Cards was also awarded &#8220;Employer of the Year&#8221; by The <a href="http://www.aclboulder.org/" target="_blank">Association for Community Living</a>. We are proud of this award and our relationship with the diverse community Boulder, Colorado represents.</p>
<p>Norman Tankersley is our longest standing employee, having worked with us for 12+ years. He plays a vital role in the production process of each and every card. Happy to be a part of our team, Norm greets each of us every day with a bear hug and a smile.</p>
<p>Jacque Alber has been a huge part of the Bloomin&#8217; team for a few years now, and having her here as part of our employee roster, is nothing short of satisfaction on everybody&#8217;s part. Her infectious smile is the highlight of our day.</p>
<p>Thank you, Jacque and Norman, for being an integral part of our team here at Bloomin&#8217;.</p>
