CAUSES WE CARE FOR:

- The Box Project is a cause that is near and dear to our hearts, as it supports families and individuals living in rural poverty by acting as a matchmaker of sorts, between “sponsor” volunteers and those in need help. Sponsors offer long term, meaningful interactions including encouragement, advice, and boxes of needed supplies about once a month. This project builds lasting relationships, bridges gaps and supports those in need in real, tangible ways. For more info about The Box Project, click here.
  *Please note, we are not affiliated with the Box Project, we simply love what they do and want more people to know about it.
