Meet 100 families who brought brightness to 2024
Thank you for helping us close out 2024 by spreading lots of bubbly love and Tubby cheer! We asked you to nominate a family by writing them a short letter to let them know how amazing they are and WOW did you deliver! We received so many incredible entries and read every single story about these inspiring families and your friendships. We gifted an entire year of bathtime ($200 value) to each of these families. Check them out below and read some of the sweet messages if you’re looking for a little light to close out the year.
First of, thank you for your service and sacrifices being a military mom and Thank you for always being here whenever I need you especially ever since I got sick. Happy Holidays!!
To the Best Moms Ever!❤️ Your Effort and Determination and Heartfelt Desire despite so many obstacles created the Most Adorable Loving Sweetest Little Angel🩷. So Thankful for Your Blessing😍
Love You Bunches🩷😍🩷
Evelyn is lucky to have you. You’re doing better than anyone could have imagined. You’re so strong and god knows raising a baby is hard but doing it alone is wild. You’re doing amazing and we wish you could see it from our eyes.
I am so glad we got to be friends. I am sad you had to move away due to your husbands military obligations, but thank goodness for phones and video chat. You have been an exceptional mom—a true inspiration for me. I hope you get to win the sweepstakes bc anything helps when you’re a million miles away (ok it’s like 1,400). Miss you tons and can’t wait to see you when we visit Kansas!
You guys are amazing. After the health and financial hardships you’ve been through the last few years you keep showing up! You’ve had a whirlwind of back luck and I love that your kids wouldn’t ever know because you still create the magic for them. Not only that but you still empathize with others and are the best listeners, still looking outward! You deserve some tubby goodies, and so much more. Here’s to a year of hopefully getting some wrongs righted and claiming your health back. I love you!
As the year comes to a close, I wanted to take a moment to let you know how much your family has inspired me this year. Watching the three of you navigate life with such love, patience, and joy has been truly uplifting.
Seeing you care for and cherish Eden has been a beautiful reminder of the power of unconditional love and the importance of cherishing the little moments. The way you balance parenthood with grace, laughter, and teamwork is nothing short of amazing.
I had the best front-row seat during Kinsley's first week in the world and was in awe of how you prepared your hearts to love and care for her the way you did and do as first--time parents. You inspire me with how you live by, "she's not giving us a hard time, she's having a hard time" in all the tougher moments of parenthood, and I'm so proud of the way you are raising Kinsley, in such a warm, compassionate, and patient home! I love how you love not only her, but show that through loving each other first!
I admire your family so much for your strength and resilience this year. You welcomed a beautiful new baby while navigating your three-year-old’s unexpected diagnosis—a lot for anyone to handle. With dad working overtime as a firefighter and mom starting a new job, you somehow kept smiling and stayed positive through all of life’s transitions. It’s inspiring to see how you’ve faced everything with love and determination. I hope you know how much you’re loved and supported—you’re an amazing family, and I look up to you more than I can say.
You are so amazing as you continue to be amazing parents to your big twins Paxton and Lucy, who are almost 2.5 years old! Even more so, you have prepared for the arrival of your next set of twins who are coming in early January with so much grace! It can be daunting to be faced with the prospect of having 4 under the age of 2.5, but if there’s anyone who can do it, it’s you! I hope that you can win some bath time fun for your babies!
Watching your family over the last year has been inspiring! You are a military family with two working parents that support each other while raising two wonderful kids. During 2024 you have had some good times and hard times. But through all the hard times you are always present and encouraging of those families around you. Even from miles away you make your love for friends and family known. How do you make it look so easy?! The world is a better place thanks to your family.
Your family has endured unimaginable hardship, losing your home to natural disaster nearly two years ago. Even though you’re still displaced & struggling to rebuild, you all have shown extraordinary resilience and hope. Your family’s unwavering spirit has inspire everyone around. Here’s to a little holiday cheer and hopes to making these hard holidays a little bubbly and bright. We know you’ll be home soon.
I am so inspired by your strength, resilience, and love, and I wanted to nominate you for a year of Tubby Todd products. Moving your family to Texas from Istanbul to start a new life took incredible courage. Then, welcoming sweet Juni into your family this September was such a joyful milestone.
Yet, amidst these blessings, you’ve faced unimaginable heartbreak with the loss of your beloved stepdad and Poppy. Through it all, your grace and perseverance have touched so many, including me. You are so deserving of this gift, and I hope it brings you a little extra comfort.
Brittany, you are an incredible mother who has always dreamed of having a child. After a long journey filled with challenges, you were finally blessed with your beautiful baby girl, Braelyn. In addition to being a wonderful mother, you are a kind and beautiful person inside and out. Recently, your world was turned upside down when Braelyn (9 months), was diagnosed with leukemia and began chemotherapy. The treatment has caused a rash, but using Tubby Todd products has helped soothe it. Despite these difficult circumstances, you and Braelyn continue to smile every day, proving to be genuinely inspirational individuals.
Thank for your love and support throughout the years. I hope you know your sacrifices of moving to another state, finding jobs, and making the best life for your daughter has been an inspiration. The gift of time and love is what she will remember and cherish.
My mom and her partner (age 60+) have recently adopted my 2 nephews ages 4,7 and niece age 2. This year has been really rough on them as they are older and now have taken his huge task to raise and care for the children. They are the most selfless and caring individuals who truly deserve this nomination. They’ve endure it all and continue to face challenges but never have given up. I would like for them to just be blessed and be acknowledged of their big sacrifice. They will be raising kids instead of retiring.
Sarah, you know you mean so much to us! Thank you for being the MOST positive, dependable, giving friend anyone could ask for. I know you work so hard, (2 jobs isn't easy!) You're doing an amazing job being Jack and Eva's Mom. They are so lucky to have you!
I just want to express my gratitude to you, for letting us rent this beautiful home. Being the best coworker and friend. I know I said no gifts this year as my family has fallen upon hard times but this is a gift I hope you will love.
I am sincerely grateful for your service and sacrifice. It most definitely comes with many sacrifices- doing so while raising toddler twins with extremely sensitive skin + a 5 year old. Tubby Todd is what works best for the twins, and I can’t think of a more giving and deserving family than you.
I thank you and your family for all that you do, including the work you put in the communities near you. Words are not enough to express the gratitude I hold in my heart for our Veterans/Active Military & the Troske Family.
YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!
I’ve nominated you because even though you live across country you’ve always been one of my biggest supporters and parents I’ve looked up to when making my own decisions for Aiden. If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have even known about Tubby Todd. This is just a thank you for everything you’ve done for our family
You guys are the very best neighbors & friends we could ask for! We cannot wait for Anthony & Luke to become best buds as they grow up together! Keep up the good work with the bakery & best of luck on the new house... luckily, you're not going too far!
I know how important tubby todd has been for Cairo considering all the sensitivities he has while ensuring you’re using the BEST products to care for him. I also know how much you rave about these products! I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this prize and hope you’re the recipient!! Keep spreading the joy of tubby!
I think you guys are doing an awesome job with Leilani. The way you both work to ensure she is properly cared for utilizing tubby Todd products to stay on top of her eczema and other skin breakouts. I know it’s a hard task with both of you working, and Noelani in school also plus trying to stay on a pumping schedule. The numerous trips to the doctors office and Emergency Room visits can take a toll, but you guys roll with the punches and keep going, sleep deprived and all.
I love you guys so much! You are so amazing and I love that you love the Lord! I pray that you win this and many more blessings that God has to offer!
You both are the most amazing parents I have even seen. Having an emergency c section at only 22 weeks and giving birth to twins. Having Matty only live for 10 days and having Emma spend 191 days in the NICU and you both fought so hard and are so brave.
Emma has now been home for one year this week and you both take such amazing care of her and you both help her to overcome every obstacle that comes up. Heart surgery, eye surgery, ear surgery and so many tests. You all rock!
You are constantly working hard as a stay at home mom of 2 and never let it show that sometimes it’s stressful. You are the heart of our home. I am forever grateful and thankful to call you my wife and the mother of our children. Love you always hun.
I am so proud of you guys. Y’all are doing a wonderful job raising Blaze and this year you added a sweet new blessing to the family, Blakely. To say I’m a proud grandpa would be an understatement. Love you.
You guys are great parents to Hazel. I know she has had a lot of issues with Eczema and her skin. I know you guys only use Tubby Todd and that these are the only products that work on her so I figured to enter you all in this! You deserve it for being such great parents and raising a beautiful baby girl! We love you all.
You are such an amazing and inspiring young family! You’re finishing up your teaching credentials, showing your commitment to shaping young minds! You have created a home filled with laughter, kindness, and an eagerness to grow, both individually and as a family unit.
You balance your studies with being a parent, and it’s impressive and you’re building a future based on values of hard work, empathy, and love. You are pursuing your dreams while being an example of what it means to be committed, loving, and hard-working. The future is bright for you and you will change the world!
To the most wonderful and loving family with the cutest little boys in town! Your love for family and close friends is fierce! We absolutely love being a part of your crew!! Here’s to making many more memories together and watching those sweet boys grow into compassionate men!! You are an amazing family and we are so blessed to know and love you all!!
I feel that you should be nominated because you’re a a wonderful mother of a newborn and a toddler. You are the most loving and giving person I know. The last 13 years has been you spending time, caring and loving all your nieces and nephews! You’ve run back and forth to all their functions, never missing anything! You are selfless and thoughtful to everyone! You’ve been the best daughter anyone could ask for! I’m so proud! So, now it’s YOUR turn to have all the attention! We are so excited! Kiss & Hugs!
I don’t know a mama that works harder to make things possible for their kids, than you! Rowan, Celeste and Sebastian are happy, healthy and thriving because of your hard work! Keep it up, mama! You’re doing an AMAZING job!
Rowan, Celeste, and Sebastian, you bring so much happiness into our lives. Thank you for loving on Miles and always keeping him busy and entertained!
You guys are awesome because you both are so smiley and happy and make every moment special. Kayla, you are the best mom to Zayd. Not only do you give your all, but you are able to spread light, happiness, and love to everyone around you no matter what is going on in your life. You’re so giving and are always there for all your family and friends, even donating your time to families in need. You also uplift others with your positivity and light up every room you walk into with happy baby Zayd in tow.
Having two kids under two years of age and having both parents work full time jobs are not a walk in the park. However, I see this family spend more time together than other families. I see the parents actively putting in the effort to spend time with the kids, even if it's just cuddling in bed or playing in the park. You could tell that their kids feel loved because they are both happy babies. They are 4 inseparable people with so much love that binds them together.
In February, Mike got his dream position at work and left for 3 months of training. Lia held down the home by herself with a freshly turned 2 year old and 4 month old. She kept positive, solo parented for weeks and weeks even while struggling and adjusting to life with 2 under 2. She is a rockstar mom! And congratulations to Mike who is the best dad and husband to those kids. We are so very proud of both of you for being so amazing. Love you!
I am nominating you because of who you are. A strong united family regardless of how much comes your way. With so much going on in the world you were committed to provide your child and child on the way a good christmas. I know its been hard to find a great job that will able to take of your family financially well and stable but don't give up. We are so proud of both of you! Hope this helps a bit for you new baby on the way!
To see the both of you become parents to your sweet little boy has been such a gift a mother could ask for. To watch her daughter find a man that supports her and helps as a father has been my favorite part of watching your family grow.
They recently has their first baby, they are truly hardworking & amazing people. They don’t have much family around them to support them but ever since they found out they were pregnant they have worked extra shifts, etc to save up & buy baby quality products like tubby Todd! They’re baby is prone to ezcema & sensitive skin & I know they love the all purpose ointment! I hope they are selected & receive some extra love this holiday season 🤍
I am nominating your family as I know your boys have eczema and your autistic toddler has sensory needs and loves tubby Todd on with his pajamas and it heals his eczema quick and prevents him from picking at his flare ups. I know your family can really use this and it will take a load off your back
The Medinas are an awesome family because they embody love, dedication, and togetherness. They celebrate each other’s achievements, and face challenges together with courage and strength. They have been through a lot as a family but they always prioritize spending time and making memories together. They are made up of 4 amazing individuals my daughter, son in law and my two twin grandsons. I know winning money for them would help to offset the costs of having twins with eczema. They deserve to win because they care about everyone and are so giving that they can use the help too.
Upon discovering that their infant daughter had an autoimmune disease that affects her skin, they put their faith in God and decided that He chose them to face this journey. And they have, with prayer and confidence in their faith. They found Tubby Todd was the only thing that helped her skin and gave her some relief, so thankful for that! Watching them navigate this is nothing short of amazing.They are both teachers of young children and I am grateful that those children have them to look up to! They would be so incredibly thankful for this gift!
Your family has been through a lot these past couple of years and you guys have been able to do the unthinkable. Help families in the NICU, put on functions to raise money for your foundation, all while continuing to grow your family after it was broken. You constantly are a blessing to all of those that are in your community, and I strive to be more like you guys every day! Thank you for showing me how to love others well and to seek a need to fill. Hope you get a year supply!
Your strength and determination to come through this difficult last year and overcome challenges of birth injuries and newborn complications amazes me. You never cease to love your boy and put him first even though it’s required so much personal sacrifice and even personal pain to push through. I know I’ll always look up to your example of motherhood Rachel! I love who you all are and know you deserve the gift of some Tubby Todd products to help his skin and make things easier both physically and financially in a difficult season!
I have watched you guys become first time parents all while juggling the difficulties of life . You try your best to provide for your family and you always make it work . The love you guys have for each other is inspiring. Baby Easton is lucky to have such hard working parents. I know it’s not always financially easy for you guys ,but you guys always move mountains to see that baby Easton has everything he needs. You guys were a big support system for me during postpartum and I am so grateful to have you guys in my life.
Strength, perseverance, hope, and love are words that come to mind when I think of you. Through all of the trials, you remain strong for your girls. Having medically complex kiddos is challenging. You handle it with grace. Nola and Naya are so lucky to have you as mom and dad.
You deserve to be showered with love this Christmas season. We use tubby Todd with Knox and it works wonders!
We hope this brings you joy. We love you!
I am nominating myself and my family because as a single mom in the Navy working 2 jobs and taking care of my little girls, having the extra help would be nice especially since both my girls have sensitive skin and would love to try this product to see if it works
They just moved to Canada from the States to create a happier life for their two toddlers under 2! Two beautiful boys who are obsessed with bath time and giggling together. This is such a happy and deserving family. Bath time is when mom and dad hang together and help bathe the boys. It’s a wonderful core memory for the kids.
You’re awesome for being a single mom and doing it all!
You opened your hearts, lives and home to my first grandson Jack who was born 1/30/24 and adopted by you.
Despite the heavy toll on finances.
I have witnessed the unconditional love you all have and your desire to adopt again.
I am impressed by the compassion and care you have as parents for Jack.
Also the lengths you will go through to care for him.
Kyle your love of hockey and coaching exceed others and McKayla the care you give to your pediatric patients at the hospital are above admirable. Keeping loving the children of your community.
You all have been warriors this year battling OTC Deficiency. I cant believe the journey that you have been on and you handled it with such grace. Roman’s liver transplant at 8 months old is truly inspiring. When I see him with my own eyes, he is truly a miracle and that is a big testament to the care that you have provided him over the last year. Your entire family is so special and Dominic is such a wonderful big brother. You guys are doing awesome and I want you to know we are proud of you!
I’m so proud of how you two have embraced this unexpected but beautiful baby. You will be amazing parents and I have no doubt that this little girl will be happy, healthy and loved. Babies and children are a lot of work but if you work together to give your little girl your all, things will be just perfect. This little girl is so lucky to have you as her parents. You’re smart beyond your years! Keep loving this little blessing!
I see all the hard work you do to make sure our son shines bright in this sometimes dull world. You never give up hope, let our son see how hard life can get for us, or fail to give to anyone around you. I've watched you go without so that others can have. Come home exhausted and still give your all to our family. Go back to school full time while working full time to help our dreams of that backyard come true for our son. We are on our way to a better future! I love you!
I love watching you (my baby) become the very best mommy ever! You are the strongest person I know and we will get thru Braelyn's chemo treatments together along with Tubby Todd for her chemo rash. It's the only thing that helps. I love you both to the moon!
This year you lost a daughter and a sister. It has been extremely hard navigating what was supposed to be bringing a newborn home to join you but resulted in withdrawal of life support and a funeral. You have continued to come together and lift each other up as well as support your very sad momma and wife. Without your support your momma would not have been able to get out of bed due to the grief. Thank you for your unwavering support.
Liana is the best mom I have ever seen! She does so much for her baby. Tried so many different creams for his eczema as well as multiple formulas for his sensitive tummy. She is always going above and beyond to do what is best for her little cutie!!
You are the best mom to my sweet grand babies. You make so proud everyday. You are in nursing school full time, 7 months pregnant and you take care of a one year old. You amaze me!! You were built to be a mama and there’s not a doubt in my mind about it. I love you.
Thank yall for loving my little boy like your own. As a selfless teacher who gave up her career to care for her babies and a devoted father who works countless hours a week to provide for his family, yall are truly an inspiration. You both are the best parents and we are so blessed to have you in our lives. I will never be able to fully show your family have thankful we are to have you. We love yall!
Y’all deserve the best skincare for your beautiful baby girl! I know you both love this product and hope you win! Keep our baby smooth with Tubby Todd! 🥰
I am so proud of you guys. As first time parents, you both, Josiah & Cassidy, are rocking it. De’Vonte is so spoiled. Cassidy did her research and stumbled upon Tubby Todd. De’Vonte has an abundance of TT products and loves them! I love being able to use them when I babysit. Keep up the AMAZING work and loving my precious grandchild.
You work your butt off as a single mama providing for your babies! Your kids are kind, happy and thriving and that’s all because of you mama!
Sara and Elizabeth, I’m so incredibly proud of you both and the beautiful family you have created. You have had many hurdles and have fought hard to keep the faith and do whatever you need to provide for your beautiful girls. When Stevie was born with Down Syndrome and you were both so scared you loved her with everything you had since the second she was born and I’ve watched her grown and thrive with your love. Her magic has changed us all for the better and your love for her and the other girls makes my heart smile.
After struggling for so long to get pregnant and then dealing with all the struggles you had while pregnant and now the struggle of taking care of twins you guys have done so much and have handled everything thrown at you with so much grace and poise. You guys are some of the strongest and bravest people I know and y’all deserve the world! We love you guys so much!
This has been a very challenging year. However, you continue to shine bright as you took on being a new mom and new dad to twin boys. You changed your entire life for your family and that is a sacrifice that comes with a price tag not everyone is willing to afford. You have such a bright light and I hope you continue to shine your love and encouragement to those around you. Anyone can be a mother or a father, but it takes love, sweat and tears to be a mom and dad.
You are all so special! Ruby will be turning ONE soon and Brooke you've done an amazing job juggling being an Emergency Department Nurse serving the local community and new mom! Chris, taking care of Ruby on the days Brooke works and working full time isn't easy. Thanks for being such good parents to best niece, Ruby! You're doing an amazing job and she is thriving! Being a parent is the hardest yet most rewarding job there is! Love you all!!
Dear Marlee. You have worked so hard this past year on your masters and having a baby and being so sick with the pregnancy. I am so proud of your hard work. I know how much you love the Tubby Todd products. I would like for you to have this opportunity for a gift from their product. I love you so much!
You guys have loved on our children/fur babies like they were your own and now you are amazing parents to your own! You guys balance work, friends, family and a new baby with ease and we are so lucky to be a part of your lives and adore you guys!
Keisha Branch is the most selfless person I know. She will always go above and beyond to help anyone who needs it. Often putting her needs aside to lend a helping hand, Keisha deserves a little TLC for herself. Watching her become a mom and navigating this new journey by herself puts me in awe of her even more. She is leading her and Gabby’s lives with grace, humility, faith and laughter! She deserves every good thing that comes her way.
Seeing you take on parenthood with vigor and strength in a tough transitional season of life has been awe-inspiring. Only to then see your little girl battle with eczema that covered roughly 85% of her body and the pain of that delicate skin rob her of the many joys you thought she may have was humbling. I am beyond impressed with how you persevered and took the road less traveled, bypassing traditional steroids for her healing, using Tubby Todd ointment and other natural remedies to take back her life resulting in complete healing! If anyone deserves this it's you!
I’d like to nominate my amazing wife and our daughters for a year’s supply of Tubby Todd bath time essentials. The heartwarming bond they share during bath time is truly special. No matter how tired she is, my wife ensures each daughter enjoys their unique moment in the tub. She has everything prepared, from matching pajamas to cozy robes. Through this, she’s taught me the value of patience and skin-to-skin time with our little ones. This gift would enhance the beautiful memories we’ve already begun to create during these simple yet cherished moments of bathtime with mommy
My sister has wanted a big family for as long as I can remember. Her dreams were delayed by heartbreak, cancer diagnosis (breast and melanoma) and a long road to find her knight in shining armor. Married at 38 and plagued by fertility issues, it felt like her dreams were continually out of reach. Prayers are indeed answered and dreams do come true. At the age of 40 my sister and her husband welcomed my sweet niece niece Oakley Jean. Believe you me, the world has never been the same.
ps how cute are they?!
Where do I begin… you are the most amazing mother in the world. The love you shower Luca and I with is unbelievable. From dinners to taking care of us when we are sick, you’re always there for us. We can always count on you. Thank you for everything you do for us. I don’t know what we’d do without you❤️
I believe you guys should be nominated for the tubby todd giveaway because watching you two flourish into amazing parents is a one of a kind. For first time parents you guys are doing great, learning and growing together to provide the best for my grandson. He is one lucky boy !
You guys have faced a lot of obstacles and this year but have found ways to pull through and always keep your home open to others
We’re so excited for yall to become parents! These products are so nice and will be a household staple. I know you all will love it! You deserve this! You will be the best parents. So excited to be a great aunt and uncle!
Kasey and Jeff have 2 lovely boys who love bath time! The boys are 3 and 1.5 years old. Kasey and Jeff are both hard workers and amazing parents! They make bath time so special with themed bath nights! They would be so greatful to win TT! The boys would have so much fun opening the TT packages too! Their boys love bath time because they have made it always so special in their daily routine! I hope you find Kasey, Jeff and their boys as deserving as I do!
Thank you!!!
I want to nominate you because you all have truly been a positive and helpful light for the heart warrior community. The way you two have handled Ariana’s heart surgery and also being parents to another toddler and make it look so easy! Keep being the light. We know your family loves Tubby Todd and you always share them with us so hopefully you are chosen because you all are so deserving!
I would be honored to nominate Evelyn, Tia and Amyre to win this awesome award. Thee past few years have been extremely hard with loses of jobs, a new addition to the family and many of health scares. Through all the trials and tribulations these beautiful women have come out of the fire blazing with stride and determination. Trying to make ends meet with a low income household while caring for a child with cerebral palsy, Evelyn has been more than inspiration to me. Sacrifices have been made but in the process love has never failed.
You are the best mommy to those two little boys & the best NICU nurse to all those babies! We are all so lucky to have you!
She has been dealing with so much with no help from family, she is a full time mom and husband works days and night to pay the bills and get the things that the kids need. Her son has ezama and she has tried everything the only thing that works is your all over ointment without oats bc his skin is sensitive to them. They can't afford to keep buying it at the moment with Christmas coming up I know they would love to be stocked up with the products that keep het little guy comfortable. Thank you 😊
You have done an amazing job since bringing home your little boy in May! After a premature birth, cardiac complications, a stay in Children’s Hospital and subsequent aftercare, you have all rocked it out as a family! You all have showed no weakness and I commend your ability to stay strong through it all!
I think you guys should win this because you have been through so much together and always overcome adversity. I know you guys have had a LOT on your plate and you continue to make ends meet. We all were not expecting Hurricane Helene to tear through our town ripping it to shreds but you guys persevered and I’m so proud of you!!!!
You guys have overcome so much in a year. You spent a month in the hospital with severe pre-eclampsia to have your son! You guys battled through having a preemie in the NICU and I know it was so difficult for you to not be able to go home with Tatum for 22 very long days. You guys have done an amazing job this year raising Tatum! From having a helmet, physical therapy, and Early Intervention, you guys have done everything you possibly could to secure an amazing life for Tatum and his future. We are so proud of you!
You have such a beautiful family… your girls are precious. I am so sorry about everything you are going through in losing access to your house during the hurricane. I know it’s been tough not being able to stay in your own home but I know you use these products and love them. So I am nominating you because you are so awesome & loving. Maybe this will help during this difficult time.
The Galas family are awesome because they’re both strong and amazing parents. Their youngest and fourth child under went two major clef related surgeries all before his first birthday. They have the happiest, bravest and smiliest little boy named Benji. They continue to amaze me by their strengths as parents and their love and care for their children. This last surgery and recovery was rough- resulting their baby to be back in the hospital. But they remained calm and pushed through and did what they knew best- being the best parents.
The Graves are an amazing family! They are kind, fun, thoughtful, and all the good things!!! They welcomed a sweet baby girl in June, and only a few months later Zach, the father of the family was diagnosed with Cancer at the age of 25. They are still amazing parents to their sweet babe despite the challenges life throws. They are amazing!!
Your generosity, drive and ability to empower and help those in your community who sometimes has no one else. The migrant families, non English speaking, the mothers and fathers in jail, the elderly who can't make ends meet. You have started food pastry's, parent education classes for the incarcerated, health care and interpreting for the migrant farm families and making sure they have school supplies and clothes as well as Christmas gifts and so much more! You amaze me! Thanks for all you do to help your community all while raising a preemie baby boy.
This would be ideal for them to win because the father of the children lost his job in construction a few montes ago right before the Holidays.This lead to losing their home because they could not afford the payments and bills. They are living with grandparents sharing 1 room. They are unemployed ,struggling, have government assistance and sometimes that’s not enough.They just had a newborn 2 weeks ago and also have a toddler which breaks my heart because this year they might not celebrate Christmas. This family is a perfect candidate and this would be the perfect Christmas miracle.
You mean more to me than I will ever be able to put into words. My sister, my best friend, my inspiration and my biggest supporter. When I got pregnant I knew you would be the biggest help, but I never knew how much I would learn from you. You are such an amazing mother and I know I wouldn’t be half the mom I am if it weren’t for you. I learn something new from you every single day. Your boys are beyond lucky to have you at their Mama. I love you forever.
Dear Rojas fam, I’d love to give the recognition you all deserve! Not only are they always there to lend a helping hand, but they both try their best to always give back to the community. Cindy, my sister who I look up to is a elementary counselor and Joey is a high school coach of multiple sports. Even when having such hectic schedules they always mange to make time for family and friends. Landon my nephew is pretty cool himself. He currently loves the transformers.
The Klinger Family are of the strongest people ever. Their baby Dallas was born at 26 weeks and has suffered endless challenges, but is still fighting. They have been at the NICU at primary children’s hospital since he was born in June and hopefully will be home by january. They are so deserving of this amazing product!
Thank you for being so generous and kind to everyone around you. You help others without ever asking for something in return. I am nominating your family because not only do you deserve it but I know it could really help out this holiday season. I know times are hard right now with Josey not working in order to go to school, but it will all be worth it! Jemry and Kohbyn are extremely lucky to have you both as parents. You both take the time to make them feel special all while balancing work and school. You’re amazing parents!
Elaine recently gave birth to her 4th beautiful child. Her oldest son was diagnosed with autism and severe eczema several years ago. She and her husband researched like crazy and have completely changed his diet. As a result, he has been steadily improving. She maintains this very specified diet, while taking care of 3 others - many times on her own as her husband often has to work out of town. Despite all this, she reaches out to friends and makes sure that we are all taken care of. She is truly a super mom and super friend!
Yall inspire me to be a better person for myself and little one on the way. Your kids are very well mannered and great kids. Mayra, thank you for your service. Serving in the military alongside raising 2 kids can’t be easy and you make it look like a breeze. We wish yall could be here for the holidays this season. Hopefully we’re reunited and yall get stationed close soon.
My heroes! Thank you for doing what very few have the courage to do. Your (foster) babies are so, so blessed to be loved by you and will grow up with the same kind of compassion for others. The countless hours of bottle feeding, rocking, changing diapers- just to do it all over again the next day, not knowing what the future holds for your lives together. What a selfless gift, that I hope, will be repaid ten-fold in ways that make your lives easier.

I have never seen a couple work together in raising their son as well as the two of you. The time you take in teaching him everyday things shows but how to be kind and gentle to others is effortless. When Lincoln is around other kids, and even adults how gentle and loving he is.That is definitely a learned behavior taught by the two of you. Your willingness to help strangers giving them blankets and hot coffee didn’t go unnoticed. Kindness is a gift you both give with your heart. Keep passing that on to your son.
Y’all have handled so much with so much grace and poise. I’m so proud of y’all and can’t what to see all the blessings that will come with your cross country move and new beginning! Y’all are raising beautiful, smart and hilarious girls. I appreciate y’all for making me a part of your family and for always supporting me.
You are the best parents to Quincy and Sloane, and provide such a healthy environment for them to mature into beautiful, loving, selfless adults. I admire your parenting and look up to your love and care for them. You inspire me by giving me hope that your life can be truly so beautiful and still so full after losing a baby, and not understanding why. You’re the best parents to angel, Sky, and the best earthly parents to Quinn and Sloane. Thanks for giving me a perfect example to look up to and hope in our loss as well.
You amaze me with your constant love, attention and advocacy for your two beautiful children. From starting a foundation for your son’s rare disease, sitting bedside through many hospital admissions, finding joy and inclusive experiences for him, and now navigating a NICU journey with you daughter - your love and ways of finding positively and making beautiful moments even in hard circumstances deserves to be celebrated. We are so impressed by your strength and the way you build a community around you! You are amazing parents! We love you!
You are amazing in so many ways! You have been so resilient in all you have been through. Graduating nursing school only a few weeks postpartum when you had your 2nd baby. Working nights as an ER nurse on the weekends, and being a mom during the day with little to no sleep. Now, with your 3rd baby prepping for your husband to be deployed after the new year. You make it look easy and have never complained once. I'm honored to have you as a friend and to have been able to watch you and your family grow <3
I am nominating the Oribamise family because of their unwavering kindness and generosity. They consistently go out of their way to help others, whether it’s through volunteering, supporting their community, or offering a helping hand to those in need. The Oribamises are an incredibly warm, compassionate family who always put others first. Their dedication to creating a positive impact is truly inspiring. They are raising kind-hearted, thoughtful children who are a reflection of their values and love. The Oribamises embody what it means to be selfless, and they make the world a better place every day.
You are so inspiring to me. I can’t even imagine how difficult this last year has been raising premature twins as a single mom. Ainsley & Reagan are so dang lucky to have you. Raising one baby is hard, let alone two babies all by yourself. I wish I was closer and we could raise our babies together. You are an amazing mother & inspire me every single day. Merry Christmas!
You rock despite all odds being against you giving up was never an option. You took care of both parents that died 9 months apart while being pregnant. Then becoming homeless for a few years while still being positive staying in your car and motels when you could you still kept goin for your babies. Now finally you are getting back on your feet and never giving up on your faith. You have your home giving back working at the shelter you once lived in and thriving to be the best mom you can be.
Watching you with your first baby this past year has been a breath of fresh air. I love seeing the way you tend to her and care to understand her and her different needs. I remember when we dealt with her cradle cap and sensitive skin issues, you carefully researched and believed you found a good company “Tubby Todd’s”. I was skeptical because I had never heard of them but you trusted your research and instinct and I’m glad because this is truly a great product/company. Made a believer out of me and I’ll shout it to the world 🙂
You guys are absolutely amazing! I know this past year has been crazy, but I’ve been continually impressed by the generosity, kindness, and love you show those around you. You put the needs of others above your own and sacrifice your time and energy to make other people’s lives better. Thank you for being such an inspiration! I really hope you win this prize. I was amazed by the quality of Tubby Todd ointment (I’ve tried so many different brands and they are the best) and know your baby would love these products as much as my baby does.
Thank you for being a kind-hearted and community-minded family who embody the spirit of compassion and generosity, shown by their selfless act of providing temporary housing and support to my kids and I, who had lost their home and were in dire need of a safe and welcoming place to stay. Reflecting on it, I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren’t for their help.
Your kindness & selflessness have not gone unnoticed. Whether through your volunteering efforts or your willingness to lend a hand to those in need, you have made a lasting and meaningful impact on all of us. The sense of unity you’ve fostered in our local community both at church and through your medical ministry is truly inspiring. Your family’s example encourages many of us to embrace kindness & compassion in our own lives. Thank you for being a beacon of positivity. We are so lucky to have you as a part of our local community here in Hawaii!
You all are amazing and our community is better for everyone because of you. Providing over 1,500 hygiene packs, 10,000 feminine hygiene products, 200 winter items and 80 tents, tarps and blankets to homeless neighbors in need is an incredible feat. And that was just by 2018. Your determination to support others through your non-profit, Hope Vibes, is inspirational. And to do all of this great work with four children (three of whom are young triplets!) is just as amazing. You all deserve every bit of light you bring into our world.
I would like to nominate Kyah Eglitis for your "Nominate a Family" initiative, Kyah spends her entire life giving back to people, she volunteers at food banks, homeless shelter, and even animal shelters. Amidst her endless giving to her community she has been facing some challenging circumstances, including rebuilding her home after Hurricane Helene, and I truly believe that your gentle, skin-loving products could make a significant difference in her life for her little ones.
Thank you for offering this generous program. I hope that you will consider this nomination and bring some comfort to a family in need.
I’d like to nominate a hardworking widow and single mom of two who deserves this incredible giveaway. Despite facing daily challenges, she’s always put her children’s needs first, working tirelessly to provide for them. She’s a dedicated mom who loves the quality and care that Tubby Todd products offer for her kids, making their bathtime routine a special, soothing experience. This would help ease her financial stress and allow her to continue providing the best for her children, all while making their bathtime moments even brighter and more joyful in the year ahead.
