A Note from Amanda

Help in a Handbasket was born from my own journey through adversity, resilience, and rebuilding.

After experiencing significant personal challenges in my life, I understood firsthand what it feels like to need support, encouragement, and a reminder that you are not alone.

In my own healing and growth, I discovered the power of small, meaningful acts of care, how something as simple as a thoughtful gesture can help someone feel seen again.

That realization became the foundation for this business.

I wanted to create something that combined two things I deeply believe in:

  • The power of thoughtful, intentional gifting
  • The importance of supporting women as they rebuild their lives

Help in a Handbasket is the result of that vision.

Help in a Handbasket is a source of hope and support for others. Every basket we create carries the intention to remind someone that they're not alone, that they're valued, and that better days are ahead. Thank you for being part of this mission with us.

My Story

Our Vision

We envision a world where gifting is more than an obligation or a transaction.

A world where every gift is chosen with intention, strengthens human connection, and creates a ripple effect of kindness beyond the recipient.

We believe gifts should add meaning, not clutter, and that thoughtful giving has the power to uplift individuals, strengthen communities, and create lasting impact.

Every Basket Gives Twice

When you give a gift from Help in a Handbasket, you're giving twice. Once to someone you care about, and once to support women in our community who are rebuilding their lives. Your purchase directly helps provide care packages, community outreach, and moments of kindness to those who need it most.

Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
