At Get Simple Box, one of our primary missions is to make a difference in the lives of people – locally, nationally and globally. One of the many ways we are doing this involves giving money to organizations that align with our values and highlighting the important work they do. Today we recognize the incredible work of Believe with Me.

How Believe With Me Started
Believe with Me really started as a high school project by Lyette Reback to give Christmas gifts to Gold Star kids (children whose families gave the ultimate price in serving our country.) Realizing the need was so great and the impact was so significant, Believe with Me has since grown in its mission of not only serving but inspiring the next generation to live in a manner worthy of contributions these Gold Star heroes have made to our nation’s well-being. As Believe With Me’s mission has expanded to support families affected by the ultimate sacrifice of their loved ones, it’s clear that their work is a vital lifeline for those grappling with loss.
Believe With Me’s Work
Believe with Me provides support and assistance to families who have experienced the devastating loss of a loved one, including those who have been killed in action, killed in training, taken by PTSD-related suicide, or affected by service-connected illnesses or active duty accidents. Practically this looks like:
- Raising awareness for the needs of Gold Star families
- Providing Christmas Gifts to Gold Star Families
- Providing financial assistance to Gold Star Families
- LemonAID – more than lemonade; it empowers the families of our fallen heroes with your support
- Freedom 4-miler to raise support and awareness of their mission
Believe With Me’s Work Matters
Believe with Me knows that the mission is great. With over 15,000 post-9/11 Gold Star Children, over 46,000 parents who have lost a son or daughter serving in our nation’s Armed Forces, and over 440,000 family members impacted by the death of a loved one in the military, their work matters now more than ever. The impact is profound, and their dedication is inspiring, as Lyette and others pour their hearts and resources into the mission, selflessly giving their time and talent without compensation, ensuring that even more lives can be touched and transformed.
