San Diego, CA – Savvy Giving by Design™ is excited to announce the launch of its latest philanthropic endeavor, the Go to Your Room Box™. This initiative aims to provide children facing medical crises across the country with design-centric comfort items. Partnering with industry leaders such as Serena & Lily, Ruggable, Erin Condren, Dewberry Kids, Environmental Water Systems, and more, Savvy Giving seeks to transform children’s spaces into sanctuaries that foster well-being, regardless of location.
Founded by interior designer Susan Wintersteen of Savvy Interiors, Savvy Giving by Design is expanding its reach beyond its current service areas through this new offering. Susan’s vision is to ensure that even more children experience the positive impact of great design and carefully curated comfort items with the Go to Your Room Box.
In this inaugural launch of the Go to Your Room Box, Savvy Giving has collaborated with companies that share the belief that good design goes beyond aesthetics – it also promotes comfort and joy. By sponsoring items for the comfort and care boxes, these companies have the opportunity to make a meaningful difference.
Alongside donated products and sponsorships, Savvy Giving will introduce additional initiatives for brands, designers, and consumers to participate in giving back. These will include options to purchase a box as part of a matching program (where for every box purchased, one is donated to a child in need), as well as full box sponsorships and a refer-a-child program.
With a goal of distributing 100 boxes over the next four years, Savvy Giving aims to leverage its nationwide network of professional designers and connections at local children’s hospitals, encouraging further engagement and impact.
About Savvy Giving By Design
Over the past nine years, SGBD and its 10 affiliate chapters have created healing environments for nearly 200 children nationwide. While their commitment to helping children is boundless, Savvy Giving recognizes the practical limitations of their small non-profit, with proximity to projects being a significant factor. That’s why in 2021, the organization launched the Pop-Up Designer program, expanding its services from Long Island to Las Vegas by facilitating partnerships between Savvy-trained designers and Make-A-Wish® in areas without affiliate chapters. And, with the addition of The Go to Your Room Box, Savvy Giving is poised to reach an additional 10 communities before the end of 2024 – extending the impact of its mission to use design for good.
