I own and operate a business called Take Care, South Bend. www.takecaresouthbend.com

We create gift baskets, care packages, and subscription boxes featuring products from local shops and makers. Part business, part service project, our mission includes helping small businesses, incubating future entrepreneurs, forcing on sustainability, and supporting social justice.

My favorite thing to do is fundraise for local non-profits. Although my business is still in its infancy, we've already raised money for La Casa de Amistad, The LGBTQ Center, Neighbor to Neighbor, Unity Gardens, and we're currently running one for A Rosie Place, as well as ramping up for a fundraiser for Girls on the Run Michiana. I'm hoping that The Awesome Foundation could fund more of these experiences!
