Father’s Day - Gifts of Love and Gratitude

Dear Baba Gift Box - Father’s Day

This Father’s day is bittersweet. In creating a collaboration gift with my brother Omar Offendum, we remember and honor our father.  Every year on father’s day, I remember the legend, my dad, who touched so many lives with his generosity and unconditional support. This year, Omar Offendum collaborates with my co-founders and I in honoring my dad’s legacy through Omar’s words and sharing the inspiration with fathers across America. 

I’m also blessed to be packaging the gifts our customers are buying, and reading the beautiful messages of love, laughter and gratitude they are sharing with their fathers, step fathers and grandfathers. I’ve felt the warmth and sincerity of their writing, reflected on their family journeys and sacrifices fathers have made for their children and smiled at the beautiful relationships dads have fostered with their children. Reading and writing the messages between children and their fathers or father figures has been a privilege and blessing. 

May you all be blessed with legacies and legends of #honor and #values in your life. Happy father’s day to all.
