Thoughtful Gifts For Essential Workers
10 Gifts to Send to Our Real Life Superheroes, the Essential Workers

The wildness of our world has made us take a good look at our priorities, and really appreciate our essential workers. The doctors, nurses, hospital staff, grocery store workers, pharmacists, gas station workers, postmen, delivery drivers, and countless others are making our lives functional, and for that we are endlessly grateful. If there's someone in your life who is leaving the house to go to work everyday, it might be nice to send them a little treat.
From non-medical face masks they can wear to chocolates they can eat, these 10 options will put a smile on their face. We're particularly into the flower and alcohol deliveries we can get sent anywhere, and we know they will be too. I know that there are a couple of things on this list I want to send to my best friend, a nurse on the front lines in New York City. Just keep reading to shop our picks.
