Cheerfulness Box

"I sent my first Sunshine Box when my son, an Army soldier, was sent overseas for the first time so I decided to send something to my daughter-in-law."

"My 14 year old son with cardiac problems since birth had an issue and we needed to call 911. The paramedic and emergency responders were so amazing that I wanted to thank them for being so "Sweet" with a sunshine box of treats. They were so appreciative of it!"

"We had recently moved and a friend we met not too long before had a tragic death in their family. We were struggling with how to support this person, who we cared about, but at the same time did not know as a very close friend yet. We wanted something for our friend personally rather than sending flowers to the funeral home, which was in another state.

I found the sunshine box which I ordered full of comfort items. Our friend was so thankful and told us they had never appreciated a gift so much. We found the perfect way to comfort our new friend. I have sent several boxes since and the recipients have all really liked them, especially because they can be so personalized. "

"A friend was going through a really rough time - her husband (and best friend) was losing his battle with cancer. I felt very helpless but wanted her to know I was there for her during this emotional and difficult time. She said she cried when she received it. She felt the love and felt very supported."

Christine S.

"My best friend’s father passed. She took it really hard. On top on being a wife, mother and working full time she needed some cheering up. I wanted to let her know I was always here for her. And the tough times will pass."

Christine T.

"My sorority sister wanted a way to cheer up her daughter in law who was battling stage 4 breast cancer. She asked me for an idea and I shared that she should send a sunshine box! Her daughter in law was so moved. She was thousands of miles from home and she said the sunshine box felt like a hug from home!"

Kandace S.

"I love sending Give Sunshine boxes. They are such a unique and more personal way to let someone know you are thinking of them, and helping them work through challenging life situations. I sent my first one to my sister when she lost her beloved cat. The next one I sent to another sister who was diagnosed with cancer and starting chemo. The third one I sent to my long term renters who bring their dog Winnie to the cottage every summer. Winnie suddenly passed away while on vacation at my cottage last month. I sent her some Sunshine in a box”.

"My granddaughter just started college in a new state several hours from home and I wanted to show her some support and love. She sent me a text message to let me know she received theSunshinepackage and really appreciated it!"

Barb H.

"I had a friend who was diagnosed with breast cancer. She sent a message to our friend group. I delayed a response because I didn’t know what to say! After some deep thought I got your email for this box!!! It’s meant to be! I sent her a box! When she received it She was very moved! Beyond tears! She had thought I had forgot about her! Your box made her day!"

Jenni B.

"My niece needed a hug, so I l thought sending her asunshinebox was a good idea. When she received it she loved it... made her cry happy tears"
