Partnership Opportunities
What We Are Looking for in a Partner:
Tend is based on partnerships with local growers and artisans of all kinds. We are currently interested in creating new partnerships and supplying our care package recipients with goods that will help them through their tough time in healing and holistic ways. We are looking for partners who will help fill our baskets with elevated and exciting gifts.
The care packages contain locally-made goodies intended to lift spirits and/or address side-effects as someone begins to face their cancer treatments. I am looking to order in bulk from partners located in New England. Examples of items include: essential oil rollers, luxurious bath salts, sensitive skin face masks, and all-natural soaps.
Currently Accepting Product and Service Partner Applications!
I would love to hear from you if you feel that you can add value to Tend's mission. Please email me a brief description of your business, product, or idea and why you think we would be a great fit!
Thanks! - Ellie
Event Co-Host Opportunities
Co-Host an Event with Tend to You:
Here at Tend, we are offering more than just a care package. We also host a variety of in-person and virtual events.
On the last Tuesday of every month, Tend extends ourselves to the community and offers either a virtual or live event. The theme of these events is to "tend to yourself", whether it be physically, emotionally, or mentally. The goals of these events are to highlight our partners, generate exposure, and fundraise. Event hosts are compensated after the event!
Examples of events we have hosted in the past can be found on our event calendar. They include yoga classes, cooking classes, organization tips, introduction to reiki, and live music. Anything that helps bring the community together is welcomed.
We compensate our co-hosts! More details in the application.
Co-Host Application is Open!
Let's get moving and bring the community together! If you would like to co-host an event, please shoot me an email and we can chat about scheduling something!
