The Tend to You Mission
We Donate One Additional Care Package for Every Two Sold!
Tend to You helps the cancer community feel seen and supported so that they can reduce stress and feel empowered through mindful selfcare. We curate and ship care packages across The United States and Canada.
Tend to You offer self-care tools for treatment and beyond, for patients, caregivers, and the entire cancer community. We serve our community through invigorating local products and self-care ideas based on navigating tough experiences. Tend empowers our cancer community via care package support and mindful self-care, while championing small businesses and artisans.
Tend to You assembles and delivers care packages for cancer patients in active treatment. These packages are bursting with high-quality, locally-sourced products made from all-natural ingredients. Through these care packages, we are hoping to help cancer patients navigate the difficulties of their journey, while also championing small-businesses.
By striving for excellence and putting caring into practice, we are confident that we can make a difference-not only for cancer patients, but for our local community as well.
501(c)(3) certified non-profit organization since June 2020.
The Reviews Are In!
"Just what you or a loved one needs during this time."
"Cancer has impacted my close friends and family, and it’s difficult when we can’t always be there for treatments or even in the in-between times. So, I’m really really happy that the care packages opened to the public so I could send them to my loved ones during an extremely difficult time❤".

Ellie McDonald, our founder, had the idea for fresh and local care packages while she was receiving chemotherapy treatment. A few weeks before her last herceptin infusion, Tend to You was born. Throughout treatment Ellie noticed that a majority of the care packages marketed to her were generic and impersonal. Being a young adult cancer patient, she felt shocked, lost, and alone. Ellie’s mission for Tend to You is to not only provide care packages for people who need them, but also to facilitate a community of support for people in the same position she found herself in. No one expects to get cancer and the news hits like a bus; so if Tend to You can help people manage through this time - we are going to!
