Our Brand Story

The world didn’t need another gifting site, it needed something helpful. 

We’ve all been there - witnessing someone we love suffer through an overwhelming time and because of distance, or schedules, or kids, or work, or even just life, not being able, or not knowing how to show up for them in the way you know they so desperately need.

Flowers or ‘stuff’ (let’s be honest the only options the internet offers up) just won’t cut it, and despite the time you’ve put into searching for something better, you’re left feeling like you’re just not doing enough. 

Well, we’ve had enough of this. And we’ve made it our mission to ensure that no one in our inner circle, or yours, ever finds themselves asking “I wish I knew how to show up” again. 

So instead, we asked a different question…

How can we make the gifting industry a little more……Helpful? 

We Are The Helpful is a curated gifting marketplace offering help, not just stuff, built on the real stories and lived experiences of what actually helped when life happened, told to us by you. 

It’s gifting, reimagined. Because the world didn’t need another gifting site, it needed something better. 

  • Better than gifting industry dictated milestones (you won’t find us marketing to those)
  • Better than marketing to the masses, when the ones that really matter are our inner circle
  • Better than the obvious, impersonal, tick-box gifts that have become the norm
  • Better than overwhelming, time consuming, impossible to navigate marketplaces 
  • Better than selling you stuff, when what you really need to gift is support 

We Are The helpful, and we’re in it together, always.
