More Than a Gift - A Reminder That Someone Cares
“As Executive Director of The Shoebox Project for Women – and having worked in agencies that received Shoeboxes—I’ve seen the impact from both sides. I’ll never forget women opening their boxes, reading the cards, and saying how much it meant to know someone cared. Our partnership with Kits for a Cause makes creating those moments easier, ensuring more women feel seen and supported.”
Rosie Smythe, Executive Director,
The Shoebox Project for Women

I recommend her business every chance I get.
Jody has worked with some of the biggest names in the social-sector, Red Cross, Habitat for Humanity and countless more. During the few years I ran one of Toronto’s many “Out of the Cold” programs we had a Christmas event where we turned donations into kits for the homeless. When we started working with Jody, we truly “did more with less”. What I will never forget is Jody’s professionalism, warmth and attention to detail. I never had any vendor help the homeless who was on time and on budget, everyone treated transactions like we should be grateful for their charity – Jody treats her clients and the people they serve with the same dignity and respect. I recommend her business every chance I get.

...Incredibly excited and proud to be part of this...
I wanted to thank you again Jody and team for supporting us at our Toronto site launch for the Together at Amazon volunteer activity! The team was incredibly excited and proud to be part of this and support those who need it most! We had Amazonians popping in throughout the afternoon to create kits and write messages of hope. And the intro from the Haven and Jean Tweed was SO IMPACTFUL! It really got people excited to be there and recognize the missions of these organizations.
Your clear instruction, organization, standard of care and excellence, and HUGE HEARTS helped to make this an experience we can all feel proud of!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you for being our wonderful guest speaker last Thursday. Your presentation was remarkable and hit the spot with this audience. The fact that you called out – food banks don’t need food but period products was profound and some of my HR folks were talking about that during the packing segment. Your comments caused others to look at the issue differently. You had an impact – thank you from the bottom of my heart.
As for the packing party, it was a blast. We had 2 assembly lines going and everyone had so much fun packing the bags and personalizing the inspirational messages. It was the first time in a long time that our team was really enjoying themselves and laughing together. It brought everyone together over a common purpose in giving back. It totally filled my cup!
Thank you for being a part of the event and making it all happen for us. ????
