"SEED made it possible for me to purchase new inventory and provided capital to support the growth of my business. Part of what I do is help support other small businesses. I am so happy to say that I can now further my mission. The work put into my closing from start to finish is so appreciated!"

Love & Light was established in 2020 by Shantel Rocha as an effort to help promote small businesses struggling due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The online gift shop offers products with uplifting messages reflective of the company's mission including drinkware, accessories, candles, clothing, and home décor. All products are created in collaboration with local vendors and artisans, and can be purchased directly through Love & Light's website.

Love & Light also offers memberships into its Roots initiative, a platform created by Shantel to promote other local businesses' products, services, and community involvement. In addition to supporting other businesses, a portion of Roots proceeds goes towards Shantel's non-profit Lights in the Dark Foundation which was created to aid a variety of local causes.
