Our Story

 In 2002 my sister was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease. I wanted to comfort her in some way, but I was at a loss. Three years later my one month old son, Matthew, died of a congenital heart defect...and just like that I became the resource that people came to when they found themselves uncertain of what to send loves ones in times of need.

A Box of Comfort is unique in that it seeks to comfort the whole person by nurturing all five of the senses. It was important to me that all gifts be both high quality and altruistic. Each gift included in the box donates a portion of its profits to a distinct charity. It is my hope that while seeking to comfort the intended recipient of this gift, you might also feel that you are helping others around our city, nation, and globe. The box, and all the gifts within, are made locally in Arizona.
