Giving Back

Lisa’s Legacy

We created Lisa’s Legacy to honour our founder’s mother-in-law, Lisa Gibson. Lisa lived a life of kindness, giving of herself to help others during some of their most challenging days. Lisa didn’t let her 30-year battle with Multiple Sclerosis define her life; instead, she saw each day as a gift and lived it with gratitude and love.  

We established Lisa’s Legacy to support causes close to her heart; this is our small way of giving back. For Lisa’s Legacy’s first year, we are proud to be able to donate to Hope for Wildlife and Food Banks Canada. If you would like to learn more about Lisa’s story and these incredible organizations, visit our blog.
