Today, we honor Juneteenth — a day that marks the end of slavery in the United States and celebrates freedom, resilience, progress, and the enduring contributions of Black Americans throughout our nation’s history.

At HHPLift, we recognize that strong communities are built through diversity, inclusion, opportunity, and respect for one another. Juneteenth serves as both a celebration of how far we’ve come and a reminder of the work that continues to create a more equitable future for all.

As we reflect on this important day, we encourage everyone to learn, listen, celebrate, and support the voices and stories that help shape our communities.

Inspired by the Getty’s permanent collection, this custom candle series was created in partnership with the museum’s retail team. The result is a collection that translates art into scent and story.

At HHPLift, we collaborate with museums to transform artwork into meaningful products that extend the visitor experience beyond the gallery, all while creating quality jobs for people building and rebuilding their lives.

When Vision Capital Management was looking for a holiday gift that reflected their values, they wanted something distinctive, thoughtfully made, and sourced from smaller businesses.

They selected our Italian-designed Smateria Shopper tote, handcrafted from repurposed industrial netting and customized with their branding.

The response was so positive that Vision Capital has returned for multiple orders over the years. At HHPLift, our mission is to create quality jobs for people building and rebuilding their lives.
