One of our passions is to give back to charity, I adore helping people whenever I can.
I volunteer our time to local food banks plus soup home offices.
Some of the most amazing connections I have had made in our life were in those spaces. After chatting with Lauren who runs the soup home office about wanting to do more, she provided myself and others a fantastic method which was to create care packages for the less fortunate. I thought this was brilliant, plus it was something that I could very do in our spare time. So, I right away came up with a game system on how to best execute it. The first thing I did was to research what I should include in the care packages, then from there I went shopping, which is something I enjoy. While I was putting together the care packages, I realized that I wanted to include an uplifting message on the bags, even though I only had a small label maker which would take forever to complete a task of this size. I had around 100 bags, plus I wanted to make around 1000 labels because that is the number of bags that I intend on putting together over time. So, I went to Google to see if there was a company near our condo who would print custom labels, plus sure enough I found a single plus their prices were very sufficient. For now, I will get our labels printed with them, but eventually I will invest in a custom label printer. After all, I system on expanding this care package into a small charity a single morning, plus I will need to be able to print hundreds of labels.
