On Saturday, Sept 21, and Sunday, Sept 22, 2019, Sunnyside Gifts (www.sunnyside.gifts) is celebrating their one-year anniversary with a family friendly event in Hillsborough. With a prize wheel, free sweet treats, and more surprises, Sunnyside’s celebration is sure to inspire fun and positivity for all. Sunnyside partnered with local nonprofit, Step Together, whose mission is to support families facing a medical crisis and are donating 50% of the proceeds during the celebration.
Wife and husband team, owners Shannon and David Winters, opened their first brick & mortar location in their hometown last year. Their mission is to offer the community positivity, good vibes, inspiration, and a dose of fun as a retailer of gifts of all kinds on the “sunny side of life.” From pop culture collectibles, metaphysical gifts, bath & body care, home décor, global fair trade handcrafted gifts, and more, Sunnyside features unique and thoughtful gifts from artisans in addition to retail brands.
During the last year, Sunnyside’s “Gifts That Give Back” donations and fundraisers supported over 30 organizations in the local community, including the Hillsborough Music Festival (co-sponsored by the Allegra School of Music and Arts), the Hillsborough School District HSAs, and other local schools, animal rescue, and sports/dance groups. As a surprise for teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week in April, Sunnyside invited all Hillsborough School District teachers to come in to thank them for all they do and gave each a gift bag filled with inspirations and free gifts. But, Sunnyside isn’t stopping there. They are already making plans for the 2020 Teacher Appreciation Week celebration that is sure to be even more awesome than the inaugural year.
“We’re all about spreading good vibes and positivity, especially when we hear so much each day about what’s wrong in the world,” owner Shannon Winters shared, “to have someone walk in the shop for the first time and feel the good energy is such a joy.” Husband and co-owner, Dave mentions, “We are so grateful for all of our community and friends who’ve supported Sunnyside this last year and look forward even more fun in year two.”
If you can’t make it to Hillsborough this weekend for the celebration, you don’t have to miss out on the fun! Sunnyside’s festivities are starting early online on Thursday at www.sunnyside.gifts. Sunnyside Gifts is located at 381 Triangle Rd, Hillsborough NJ, in the Triangle Center (near Wawa).
