In honor of Giving Tuesday, I'd like to tell you a little about some of our favorite causes. We are honored to partner with the following local organizations in an effort to give back to the community we are so blessed to be a part of.
Field & Wick by New Growth Project
Field & Wick makes handcrafted candles, soaps, room sprays and gifts, creating job opportunities for their employees with disabilities. Focused on organic and clean ingredients, Field & Wick provides quality, clean products that make wonderful gifts.

We have been selling the popular candles since August and it's tough to keep them in stock. Their holiday scents are amazing. Sugar Cookie is a personal favorite!

Hand Made in the Hills
We have just added amazing handmade soaps crafted by Forest Hills Northern students in the STEM 10 Science program. Custom stamped with our Pursuit North Pole Post logo, these festive favorites, Snow Day and Candy Cane are sure to be popular gifts in our community.
HMH is a student-run business at Forest Hills Northern High School dedicated to positively impacting both the environment and the community. The company focuses on crafting products sourced from eco-friendly and sustainable ingredients, HMH aims to minimize its environmental footprint while maximizing community impact. With every 10 bars of soap sold, they donate one bar to In The Image, a local non-profit organization that works with low income and homeless families in West Michigan.
In addition to its commitment to sustainability, HMH prides itself on offering healthy, nourishing soaps free from preservatives, artificial additives, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Every bar of soap is carefully prepared with a balanced mix of fresh new scents every season.
The students behind HMH are not only gaining hands-on experience in entrepreneurship but are also raising awareness about sustainable practices in their school and surrounding community. They organize educational events, and sustainability workshops to inspire others to make mindful choices.
HMH is constantly exploring new ways to innovate both our product offerings and our impact in the community. With a passion for environmental stewardship, wellness, and community involvement, HMH is setting a new standard for socially responsible student-run businesses.
