A gift that keeps on giving.

The Cornerstones Young Professional Advisory Board is saving to build a community garden at one of Cornerstones’ residences. Time spent in nature and in community can gently support healing, reduce stress, and remind someone they are not alone. This shared space will offer women a place to connect, reflect, and care for their health and well-being, season after season.
Five dollars from each purchase will go directly toward creating this garden, helping support mental health, healing, and a sense of belonging for years to come.
