Comfort Baskets

Comfort baskets are offered in times of sickness, bereavement, sadness, an empty nest, and many other reasons. When you don’t know what to say but you want to show you care, be sure to send a comfort greeting.

Show That You Care

We know that sending wishes of sympathy and comfort are appropriate during times of illness or death. Comfort baskets can be sent any time that you want to reach out and console someone going through a stressful experience. They can also include happy occasions where stress is involved, like the first year at college away from family or moving into a new home.

When Death Is Involved

Anytime death is involved, a comfort gift is appropriate. A thoughtful basket can be sent to parents who have lost children, children who have lost parents, people who have suffered miscarriages, people who have lost spouses or parents, or even to a coworker who has had a recent death in the family. Pets are often considered members of the family, and it's a very thoughtful gesture to send a comfort box and sympathy wishes to a fellow animal lover.

In Times of Illness

If someone is home with the flu, diagnosed with a terminal illness, or in the hospital, that’s the time to send a sympathy basket, too. These special baskets make great office gifts for someone who may be convalescing and unable to return to work for a while. Anyone who is sick will appreciate receiving a comfort basket filled with chocolates, teas, soups, and other easy to prepare and eat goodies.
