  • This fall, we have had so much fun getting to connect with our corporate supporters through a Donor Treat Tour! We have dropped by to visit with our Ripples of Hope organization sponsors, thank them for their support and give their team some cookies (with sailboats on them of course). It means the world to us to have a community that shares our passion for mental health and grief support. It's been the ~sweetest~ time getting to visit some of our favorite teams!
