    A soft toothbrush helps to avoid any of the discomfort you may get from harder brushes.

    • A little kindness goes a long way

    Receiving a Little Lifts Box was surprising, emotional, personal and wonderful. It made me feel understood, not alone and cheered on because someone cared about what I would need to help get me through it.
