Sandboxx

Meet Sarah Heck, one of our Sandboxx Community Ambassadors from Northeast Indiana. 🧡

She and her husband have three sons, and all three are stepping into adulthood in inspiring ways.

Broderic enlisted in the Air National Guard as a high school senior. ✈️
Landon earned a Naval ROTC nursing scholarship and heads to Marquette University this fall. ⚓
Marshall was awarded a spot in a highly competitive skilled trades apprenticeship. 🔧

Three boys. Three paths. One family that has always believed in service and doing hard things. 🏔️

In Sarah's words:

"We have raised all 3 of our sons to embrace doing hard things, to be comfortable being uncomfortable, and to put others first while honoring God, family, and country. When our sons each turned 14, my husband took them on their first one-on-one father/son trip to Colorado to climb a 14,000 foot mountain to show them that they CAN do hard things, even when it looks impossible at the start.

Supporting our troops is essential to preserving the freedoms we enjoy every day. Our military members sacrifice so much on our behalf; the absolute least we can do is support them in return."

Sarah is an ER nurse, a proud military mom, and the kind of supporter who makes the amazing Sandboxx community what it is. Check out her full spotlight inside Sandboxx Stories inside the Sandboxx Community.

Happy National Siblings Day! 🧡⚓

About 3 weeks before her son shipped out for Navy boot camp, Trisha Kozloski from New Haven, CT found herself crying on the treadmill at the gym. She had no idea why.

She was proud. She was excited for him. So why the tears?

She beat herself up about it. She told herself she wasn't sad. She told her husband. She told her son.

And then the airport goodbye happened and she understood.

"I have learned that so many of the tears are tears of joy and proudness. I am just so filled with pride that it leaks out my eyes."

Today we are spotlighting Trisha, a proud Navy mom, a Sandboxx Community Ambassador and the heart of a family of seven. Her four younger kids rallied around their big brother from day one and they are all counting down the days until they pack up siblings and cat included to watch him graduate at Great Lakes.

Big news! We have TWO open roles on the Sandboxx Marketing Team, and we are looking for some of the best in the business.

If you have been waiting for a role where the work actually means something, this is it.

Brand Partnerships Manager
We are looking for someone who knows how to build brand relationships with integrity, not just close deals. You will own the full partnership experience from the first conversation through renewal. Enterprise sponsorship or media sales experience required.

Social Media Manager
This one is for the creators who are not afraid to be the face of the brand. You will manage social across every major platform, get in front of the camera and own it, and build channels like Pinterest and Reddit from the ground up. No team to hand off to. No delegating. Just you, your creativity, and a community that is genuinely worth showing up for. If you live and breathe TikTok and Instagram and have the content to prove it, we want to see it. Include links to your work when you apply.

Apply via the link in the comments, and please share this with anyone in your network who would be a great fit.

Today we honor the recipients of our nation's highest military decoration. 🎖️

The Medal of Honor represents something almost impossible to put into words. It is the story of a human being who, in the most dire of circumstances, chose others over themselves completely and without hesitation.

There are 65 living recipients. Each one carries a story that should never be forgotten. At Sandboxx, honoring the military community is woven into everything we build, every letter we deliver, and every connection we help make possible. 🧡

To every Medal of Honor recipient, living and gone: thank you for showing us what courage looks like at its absolute highest. 🇺🇸
