The Baby Shower Gift That Gives Back

In Kind Boxes is a female founded, and volunteer run 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based near Portland, Oregon.

Our goal is to support families on their postpartum journey. We care to help reduce inequalities and work to promote good health and well being. We do this by providing families with gift boxes filled with natural and organic essentials.

Our postpartum box is carefully curated for both mom and baby because moms deserve to feel special too. For every gift box sold, we donate one to a family in need. We believe that every mom deserves quality postpartum care.

Join our village of support, and help us shower new moms with the love, kindness and support they deserve. Because motherhood isn’t meant to be done alone.

Make a difference with your gift giving by shopping with In Kind, or adding our gift box to your baby registry. What’s better than giving a gift that gives back?!

Thank you for showing moms in need that you care!

Our Why

Founder, Maria Berglund, started In Kind because of  her frustration with the lack of postpartum support moms receive in the United States.

Giving back is especially important for Maria, because she was raised by a single mother in need. She grew up understanding the value of community support, and has made it her mission to pay that kindness forward through In Kind Boxes.

Together we are changing lives! We couldn’t do what we do without you.

Our Work

We have helped more than 1,200 families in need since November 2019, when our first postpartum boxes became available. On January 1, 2021 we expanded our gift box donation program beyond Oregon, to support families in need across the United states. Some of our local partners include:
Clackamas Women's Services

Our Portland Metro area partners are amazing organizations that provide support through services such as healthcare, education, emotional and mental health support, clothing, supplies, emergency shelters, and much more. We donate our gift boxes to our partners, to be distributed to mamas as needed. If you know of other Portland area organizations who provide prenatal or postpartum care for moms in need, and could use the gift of our boxes please reach out to us!

If you aren't local to us, but know of a mama in need who could use our help, please click here to nominate her to receive a donated gift box from In Kind. *This program is open to US residents only.*

Let yourself have fun. You deserve it. 💓 Havin Let yourself have fun. You deserve it. 💓
Having babies changes us in a lot of ways. 
It can bring a lot of awkwardness in terms of how things fit our bodies. 
For me it felt like going through puberty again learning how things fit my new body, and what I felt comfortable in. 👙
Curves, stretch marks & cellulite are normal. 
I had all three of those things prior to having kids, and have even more now because of kids.
They may not be my favorite parts of my body, but I refuse to let the existence of those things stop me from enjoying my summer.
Please free yourself from the narrative that you “have to” look a certain way, or be a certain size/weight to wear shorts, dresses, bikinis etc.
You are worthy of summer fun exactly as you are. 🙌
Now tell me, which do you prefer: 
beach 🏝 or pool 💦?
