LITTLE THINGS LOST

Community Impact
Community, culture and connection at the heart of everything we do.
Our purpose extends beyond the products we create. We believe that when our business is in a position to give, we should find meaningful ways to give back.
Our Story
Business With Community at Its Heart
Jyelah Mind & Body is an Aboriginal-owned skincare business founded by Kerrilee Philp, with community, culture and connection at the heart of the brand.
While Jyelah is known for creating skincare inspired by Aboriginal knowledge and native Australian botanicals, our purpose extends beyond the products we sell. From the beginning, we have believed that when our business is in a position to give, we should find ways to give back.
Over the years, Jyelah has supported families, young people, sporting teams, schools, community organisations, health-related causes and local fundraising initiatives through financial sponsorship, product donations, fundraising prizes, event resources, education, workshops and volunteering of time and knowledge.
Our Community Impact
Community runs through everything we do.
Our community contribution takes many different forms, from supporting families and young people to grassroots sport, fundraising, education and Aboriginal community initiatives.

From junior teams to women's league tag, we back local clubs that bring our community together.

Partnership With BLOSS Riverina
Supporting Families Through Loss
Little Things Lost & BLOSS Riverina
Little Things Lost has partnered with BLOSS Riverina, strengthening the network of support available to families experiencing pregnancy and infant loss.
BLOSS was founded in 2018 by four Riverina women following their own experiences of baby loss and connection through local bereavement support groups.
BLOSS provides families with access to resources, referrals and support services, coffee catch-ups, connections with other local services and assistance towards counselling services.

Supporting Aboriginal Young People & Community
Celebrating Aboriginal Young People
Culture, community and the next generation
Supporting and celebrating Aboriginal young people is another important part of Jyelah's community contribution.
Jyelah supports events that create positive spaces for Aboriginal young people to have their success acknowledged and celebrated.
Our contribution is not always financial. Sometimes giving back means contributing products, materials, resources, skills or simply what is needed to help a community event happen.
Youth Black Excellence Awards
Cultural Pride Award
Jyelah Mind & Body sponsored the Cultural Pride Award at the Youth Black Excellence Awards, contributing to the recognition and celebration of Aboriginal young people and their achievements.

Supporting Aboriginal Excellence

Grassroots Sport
Supporting Local Sport
Jyelah Mind & Body has proudly supported grassroots sport across different ages and stages, from young children beginning their sporting journey through to teenage girls and women's teams.
Supporting local sport is about more than putting the Jyelah name on a team. Grassroots clubs create opportunities for children, young people and adults to participate, connect and belong within their community.

Our Community
Supporting our community in many different ways
Giving back isn't always about money or products. Sometimes it is about time, knowledge, skills and simply helping where we can.
Community Fundraising
Supporting Community Fundraising
Throughout Jyelah's journey, we have regularly supported community members, families and organisations by donating product bundles, gift packs and prizes for raffles, auctions and fundraising events.
Our donations have helped raise funds and awareness for cancer support, muscular dystrophy, suicide awareness and prevention through Lifeline, funeral expenses and many other local community and family-led causes.
For Jyelah, community support doesn't always need to be a large corporate sponsorship. Sometimes it is simply donating a bundle that becomes a raffle prize, which becomes money in the hands of a family who needs it.
Education & Knowledge Sharing
Community Education & Knowledge Sharing
Giving back isn't always about money or products. Jyelah also contributes through time, knowledge, skills and sharing the experience of building an Aboriginal-owned business.
Aboriginal Medical Service Soap-Making Workshop
Jyelah has worked with an Aboriginal Medical Service to deliver a hands-on soap-making workshop, bringing community together through a practical activity while sharing knowledge and skills developed through the Jyelah business journey.
Donated Emu Bush Tree to Griffith East Public Schools Native Garden
Jyelah Mind & Body Proudly donated an Emu Bush Tree to Griffith East Public Schools Native Garden. Emu Bush is a special native plant and a key ingredient used throughout our Jyelah range. We hope this tree provides students with an opportunity to connect with native plants, culture and learning the importance of caring for Country for many years to come.
Inspiring the Next Generation – Year 8 Commerce
Kerrilee has also spoken with Year 8 Commerce students about Jyelah Mind & Body and the realities of establishing and operating a small business.
Our Community Impact
Our commitment going forward
For Jyelah Mind & Body, social responsibility is not about attaching our name to a cause for recognition. It is about community supporting community, building relationships, giving back and looking after the communities that have supported us.
As an Aboriginal-owned small business, we believe in relationships, reciprocity and creating meaningful connections. As Jyelah grows, our goal is for our capacity to give back to grow with it through sponsorship, donations, education, partnerships and continued support of Little Things Lost.
Because when our community supports Jyelah, we believe Jyelah should support our community too.
