Colorado Crafted has partnered with Sticker Giant to create a gift collection that, when purchased, gives 10% of the sales to Longmont Meals on Wheels.
Colorado Crafted is an online shop that collects Colorado products and makes them available in modern gift collections and Sticker Giant is a Longmont-based sticker manufacturer.
"One of our big goals for this year is to give back to our community as much as we can, using the platform of our business. One idea we had was to partner with other local businesses so that they could curate a gift collection of products that were special to them, and then they could select a local non-profit to give back to," says Sarah Welle, owner and co-founder of Colorado Crafted.
Welle and her co-founder, Dulcie Wilcox, decided to begin by partnering with Sticker Giant. Colorado Crafted allowed Sticker Giant to have input on which products were combined in their gift box. "They decided to use brands that are currently using StickerGiant labels or stickers to tell their brand story. We thought that was such a cool fit with what we were trying to do with this super local box," says Welle.
Here is a list of the products and descriptions of the products included in the Sticker Giant gift box:
- Olomomo Nut Co: Kettle-roasted almonds that are a little bit sweet but with a spicy kick.
- Sweetwood Cattle Co. Beef Jerky: Small-batch jerky made in Steamboat Springs.
- Chocolove: This mini bar of 55% dark chocolate is flavored with tangy orange peel. A classic flavor combination!
- Two Leaves & A Bud + Colorado Crafted: A lovely selection of three craft tea sachets, adorned with a StickerGiant sticker of course!
- Bee Squared Apiaries: Experience this delicious honey made in happy hives on Colorado's front range. This honey is extra special because it's aged in whiskey barrels which gives it a deep, complex flavor.
After choosing the products for the box, Sticker Giant was then asked to choose a nonprofit to donate 10% of the sales. The company chose Longmont Meals on Wheels because of their long-running relationship with the nonprofit.
"We're so excited to share this collaboration box, which we created in partnership with StickerGiant! We're both Longmont-proud businesses, and we wanted to get together to support each other's work as well as give back to our community," says Welle.
This promotion is limited and expected to end on November 1, 2018.
