Our Mission & Vision
Our mission is to create more caring communities around those facing hardship by normalizing mental health through approachable conversations and providing creative channels to show authentic kindness.
Our Services
We collectively bolster the mental health community by providing meaningful volunteer opportunities, targeted business support, and mental health- focused art that is both sold and donated in our community.
We collaborate with clinics, pharmacies, mental health organizations, gift shops and schools to find volunteers, art buyers, and mutually beneficial collaborations. – Janessa

History
In 2023, after decades spent in mental healthcare leadership, I combined business and art skills to launch an LLC with my daughter. Our “tiny art” concept began with Med Snugglers – crochet medicine holders seeking to make the med experience more friendly.
Now, we create various forms of tiny art with heart (kind messages) to sell and donate to local youth facing mental health challenges in collaboration with schools, artists & organizations.
Volunteers & Donations
Our volunteers have made over 1,026 art donations in only two years. Each donation includes a personal message of kindness from the maker on a QR code sticker (the heart). We foster a creative environment that encourages, volunteer led, conversations about mental health, informed by the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
