A Founder’s Note

Stephanie Field

CHARIS began during the first Christmas after my husband died.

Life felt more precious that year.

I wanted to give beautifully—for my children, for family, for friends—but nothing I found felt equal to the occasion.

“So much of what I encountered felt hurried, generic, emotionally vacant.”

The name CHARIS comes from the Greek word for grace: the movement between giving, receiving, and remembering.

That movement remains at the center of everything we do.
