Holiday Gifts that Give Back: Bochy’s Box, a Self-Care Gift Box
that Helps Support Sex Trafficking Survivors
DALLAS, TX (SEPTEMBER 13, 2022) — Make the holidays extra merry and bright for family and friends with a gift they will fa-la-la-la-love, a self-care box from Bochy’s Box. Nourishing the mind, body and soul, a gift from Bochy’s not only inspires self-love, but it’s a gift that makes a difference with 100% of the profits going towards restoring girls rescued from sex trafficking who are staying at Bochy’s Place. The North Texas safe home offers survivors vital counseling and trauma care, medical and dental, basic home necessities, education, job training, and so much more.
In today’s hustle and bustle culture, it is important to prioritize one’s health, happiness, and overall well-being. With a Bochy’s Box, gift recipients will receive a specially-curated box filled with both survivor-made products, including the signature Bochy’s Box candle and affirmation cards, as well as products from companies who support Bochy’s mission. Gift box options include holiday-themed boxes, self-care, and mini self-care boxes. Shipping is available in the Continental United States. Holiday orders should be placed no later than Friday, December 9 to meet shipping deadlines.
This year’s Christmas Box, priced at $84.99, is a merry mix of fun and coziness. This uniquely packaged box includes a “Hope for the Holidays” scented candle that is hand poured by the survivors at Bochy’s Place, a peppermint scented bath salt also made by the survivors, an adorable “All You Need Is Love” scarf, moisturizing butter LONDON lipstick, a Rosy Rings botanical sachet, a DesignWorks Ink project notebook, a Harvest Goods Co. embroidery kit, and other surprises. The Christmas Box is a wonderful, self-care gift box idea for you or your loved one to support personal growth and self-love from the comfort of your home.
Launching in October 2022 is the Comfort Box, a box where sex trafficking survivors have made a majority of the products.
