Your Personal Legacy Every senior has a journey and story to tell to their family and friends. It is their gift to share with their loved ones. It is their legacy to give and pass on to future generations. ​ It is our mission to make this a reality. ​ One page at a time. About Us Vision In a world that often values novelty and quick consumption, our efforts to preserve and share these timeless memories are invaluable. By highlighting the achievements and wisdom of seniors, we hope to foster a culture of respect, empathy, and inter-generational understanding. Our projects have the potential to touch the lives of many and leave a lasting legacy of love, wisdom, and human connection. Mission Our mission is to set our initiatives apart from others in our commitment to remove barriers for our clients. By offering these storybooks completely free of charge, we are making this valuable service accessible to individuals who may not have the means to create such keepsakes themselves. This act of giving back to the community is our desire to honor and celebrate the lives of seniors. Get to Know Us The journey began with the deep love for the founders' grandparents. During the pandemic, the sibling duo frequently conversed with their grandparents while in mandated quarantine and learned of their fascinating experiences. Kyle and Leah subsequently became intrigued with seniors and their stories and legacies they left behind. This became the inspiration to develop storybooks that chronicle and document their life stories for future generations. Preserving and sharing the life stories of seniors is a wonderful way to honor their experiences and ensure their legacies are remembered for generations to come. Storybooks documenting their stories can serve as valuable heirlooms that connect families and friends, bridging the gap between different generations and fostering a sense of continuity and understanding. By revitalizing these stories and tales, not only do they preserve personal histories but also contribute to a collective narrative of human experiences. Each story is unique and offers valuable insights into different eras, cultures, and perspectives. Through sharing these stories, it is the founders' hope to inspire others and help them gain a deeper appreciation for the accomplishments and wisdom of seniors through the lives they once lived. Learn More ​ What We Do The founders' collaboration and complementary skills in creative writing, arts, and digital media make them a powerful team in capturing and preserving the life stories of seniors. By working closely with clients and their families, they are able to gather not only factual information but also personal anecdotes, pictures, and keepsakes that truly encapsulate the essence of their journey and legacy. ​ The end result, a beautiful storybook, serves as a tangible representation of a life well-lived. It summarizes and epitomizes the client's experiences, achievements, and the wisdom they have gained throughout their journey. These storybooks become cherished keepsakes that can be shared with family members, friends, and future generations, ensuring that the client's story and legacy endure. ​ ​ Our Results And Thank You The reactions of our clients upon receiving their completed storybooks are indeed the most rewarding part of our work. Witnessing their joy, gratitude, and perhaps even a sense of validation for their life's journey reaffirms the importance of our mission. These storybooks not only bring happiness to our clients but also serve as a source of inspiration and connection for those who read them. ​ Leaving a Legacy With You in Mind The process of creating these storybooks can be a transformative experience for both the storytellers and creators. It provides an opportunity for seniors to reflect on their lives and share their memories, offering them a sense of purpose, validation, and the joy of passing on their knowledge.
