Together Spreading Joy

We cannot do all the good the world needs. But the world needs all the good we can do.

A mentor once told me that when looking for ways to bless others, to use what's in your hand. With that, we've made it our mission to use our company and resources in ways that allow for the support of individuals and organizations we hold dear.

In addition to our Together Spreading Joy project, here are a few additional organiztions that have a special place in our hearts. Mamas For Mamas, City Dream Centre, BC Women's Foundation and the Canadian Cancer Society.

We are very thankful for you, our incredible customers, and appreciate your support. It's thanks to you that together, we can spread some joy.

The largest student-led business conference in North America, over the last decade the TRMC has enriched the academic, social and professional lives of the thousands of delegates.

"For 13 years the Ted Rogers Management Conference has been creating an environment that has fostered the growth of our leaders of tomorrow. Previously it has focused on thinking outside the box by reimagining the world, becoming comfortable with being uncomfortable, and even pushing boundaries to go beyond all limits.

This year we wanted to shift the focus on you, each and every one of you. We want you to understand the power that lies behind you, the power of your actions, the power of your beliefs, and the power of your purpose. How can you leave an impact on your community outside of your workplace and classroom?" ~ Laiqa Lalani, Chair, TRMC

With the help of , YOU, our incredible customers, together we were able to spread a little joy to the staff at Stollery Children's Hospital.

This came as a very special request from Heather Lazeski - Momma to little James. See her comments below...

"When James was just 6 months old he was flown from BC Children's Hospital to Stollery Children's Hospital. Upon transportation he went into cardiac arrest twice. When he arrived in Edmonton he was quickly crashed onto ECMO. After a few days he was transitioned to a VAD, and then after a few weeks he was then switched over to a Berlin Heart. James spent 3 weeks in PCICU recovering from multiple organ injuries and major surgery. Following that, he spent the next 6 months waiting for his special gift- a donor heart. We did not know how long that wait would be. Throughout James' wait there were some obstacles but the day came and his surgery went well and he was discharged locally only 12 days postop. We are so thankful to all of his 'aunties' that looked after him along our journey and a few uncles too! They were always great support for me as well spending long days in the hospital for 7 months. Always listened, always compassionate and always loved James. We love them so much!"

After receiving the care package of Chelsea King hair accessories... "

We had a game where we had to guess employees pictures with their PPE on, correct answers were entered in a draw and the winners received one of your scrunchies. I was one of the winners. I was amazed at how great your product held my hair. I talked to my daughter (a double lung transplant recipient and newbie blogger) who knew all about your product through Jillian Harris. "Mom, I'm jealous, those are so bougie." I am so thrilled with your product ... Thank you very much, I know my co-workers appreciate your gift and it lifts our spirits to know we have the support from across the country! Thank you!"  - Karen
