On April 19, 2018, at Fulfill Your Destiny’s Annual Spring Chari-Tea Event, Tina Brunsman of Sweet Soap Confections was awarded a $1000 Business Builder Grant in honor of Josephine Mason, a Personal Banker at American Momentum Bank.
Tina’s venture into business began back in 2015, when her youngest daughter brought home a soap making kit on a weekend visit from college. What started out as a fun mother/daughter project, grew into a passion. With the encouragement of her friends, Tina and her daughter decided to take some of their soaps to sell at a local holiday market. To their surprise, they sold over 80 bars of soap within 2 hours! This was the start of Sweet Soap Confections. As the recipient of this grant, Tina was able to pursue her business goals of creating her website and offering her products online. They now offer luxury soaps, bath products, and hand poured candles, which are all a labor of love for this mom and her daughters. In addition to offering signature soap scents, that smell so yummy you may want to bite (but don’t please!), Tina also offers the option of customizing an order to your desired scent. In more recent years, Tina’s business has continued to grow as she participates in vendor fairs and events locally. She has also impacted her community by participating in the Great American Teach IN, where she was able to teach some young minds the fun of making soaps; as well as partnering with another local company to donate over 100lbs of soap to victims of Hurricane Ian. We love to see how much Tina has accomplished and grown these past years, and are proud that we were able to help her on her mission of expansion with our Business Builder Grant. We wish continued success to her!
