Where Your Support Goes

When you purchase from JJ. Handmade, you’re doing more than supporting a small creative studio, you’re directly contributing to the wellbeing of Canada’s first responders and military personnel.

JJ. Handmade operates as a not-for-profit, which means every dollar that comes in is put right back into the mission. Your support helps fund mental health and rehabilitation resources across Canada, providing practical care for the people who spend their lives serving others.

• Expand access to mental health programs for first responders and military members

• Support rehabilitation services for those recovering from trauma, injury, or operational stress

• Reduce stigma by backing initiatives that encourage honest conversations and real support

• Build community resources shaped by lived experience, not just policy or theory

Every quilt, coin, swag, pattern, devotion or handmade piece you choose becomes part of something bigger, a movement to care for the people who show up on the hardest days, often without asking for anything in return.

Supporting JJ. Handmade means supporting those who serve.

It’s creativity with purpose, and compassion in action.

Thanks to the generosity of people like you, JJ. Handmade has contributed to several organizations doing incredible work across Canada including:

• Wounded Warriors Canada 

• Honour House / Honour Ranch Society 

• Boots on the Ground 

• Badge of Life Canada 

• #IVEGOTYOURBACK911 

• Team Rubicon Canada

• Rescue Me Tutoring

• Tiny Sparks Foundation

JJ. Handmade is built on community, connection, and the belief that we’re stronger when we work together. We love partnering with organizations, teams, and local groups who are raising funds, supporting first responders or military personnel, or rallying around a cause that matters.

If you’re planning a charity event, fundraiser, auction, raffle, or community initiative, JJ. Handmade would be honoured to support your efforts. Whether it’s contributing a quilt, a challenge coin set, handmade goods, or a custom piece that reflects your event’s purpose, I’m always open to collaborating in ways that create meaningful impact.

Every partnership helps extend the mission, supporting mental health and rehabilitation resources across Canada and caring for the people who dedicate their lives to serving others. When we link arms, we’re able to do something bigger than any one person or small business could do alone.

If you have an idea or an upcoming event, contact us. We’d love to hear what you’re working on and explore how JJ. Handmade can be part of it.
