Our first month's donation! July 2019.
Tender Heart Gift Co. is a project created in my father's honour.
The idea for this business came to me one day during a highly emotional time. I was in a card shop trying to pick out a Father's day card for what was going to be my dad's last Father's day. After a long battle battle with cancer he was near the end in palliative care. As I sifted through the many cards I burst into tears and ran out of the store. Feeling embarrassed as I couldn't keep it together, I was also feeling frustrated as there just wasn't any kind of appropriate card for the situation and thought to myself "sometimes there are no words" and later that day decided to create my own that said exactly that.Feeling so many others could probably relate I decided to create a line of cards that were simple yet heartfelt, which became Tender Heart Gift Co.'s signature line.
I felt so helpless with my dad's terminal diagnosis. It was the worst feeling ever as I wasn't able to do anything to change the outcome. By donating part of the proceeds from this shop to the Canadian Cancer Society I'm hoping in some small way I can make a difference. This project is definitely close to my heart and has been a creative outlet to help me deal with the grieving process.
Fast forward to 2020 when Covid hit. When we were unable to travel and visit family abroad. I wanted a thoughtful gift I could send my sister in law who would be celebrating her first Christmas without her mom and our "Box of Hugs" was created. As a former medical esthetician, I decided to combine my previous knowledge, training and extensive experience in skin care to build a line of all natural, luxury products. As someone who is extremely sensitive to scents, I wanted skin care without any synthetic fragrances, which were triggers for headaches and also free of all the toxic chemicals you find in drug store brands. Also suffering from rosacea, it needed to be good for sensitive skin and I'm happy to mention flare ups are almost non existent now! I truly love all these products and hope you will as well!
If you've made it this far thank you for your interest and for listening.
Peace and love,
Kathryn

What if my package is sent back to you?
Any packages that are returned to sender due to buyer error will incur a return fee (charged by the shipping company). Not only will you not be refunded the original shipping but will be charged this return fee if the error lies with the customer. For example, wrong address or unclaimed packages, failure to pick up or reschedule delivery. We do not accept returns or cancellations and therefore the cost to send out a second time will also be the responsibility of the customer and will be billed accordingly. For Canadian customers, if you select the courier option please include any other info that may be needed for a successful delivery such as buzzer code, phone number, etc.
