Radical Reset – Business Gifting"We loved partnering with Get The Bag to provide our Radical Reset grantees (BIPOC women changemakers taking a long weekend to disconnect from their day-to-day to reconnect with self) with a box that enabled them to have an even more meaningful reset experience. Gloria curated a box filled with values-aligned goodies that made our grantees feel extra supported and cared for. We look forward to partnering with her again!" – Radical Reset
