The Four-o'clock Flowers Around the World Free Cancer Project has received several honors and awards since its inception in 1994.

Postmaster General Runyon, Louisiana Governor Foster, the American Cancer Society, the Cancer Association of Greater New Orleans, and others submitted letters to the Points of Light Foundation requesting the Four-o'clock Flowers Around the World Free Cancer Project receive an award. Kevin Donahoe and the Four-o'clock flower project was notified of the award, which was presented by former President G. H.W. Bush. Kevin was waiting for the award to be sent to him when he was contacted by the Points of Light Foundation that President Bush would personally present the award to him.
