Megan Boone hasn't added a story.
Subscription boxes have exploded over the last two years and “regional” subscription boxes are the newest trend.
If you like surprises, trying new products or supporting local businesses, regional subscription boxes are for you! …and My Community Box is Virginia’s regional box. We work exclusively with Hampton Roads businesses in procuring products that are unique, new & local. Then we neatly pack them into our Community Boxes and ship them directly to your door.
Our Story
My Community Box opened its doors last winter and shipped its first beta box in April 2014. The beta box was a hit but the membership hasn't grown enough to sustain the business. With summer being the biggest season for community involvement, we need to raise capital to meet demand before we have the numbers.
What We Need
Through this fundraiser we’re hoping to raise $5000 that will be used in the following ways:

FAQs
o How do you help local businesses?
MCB helps local businesses in many ways. First we offer marketing and exposure by including their products in our Community Box. We also refer repeat business directly to local shops and provide contact info in the Community Box, on our website and our social pages. Lastly, we also promote pictures and social updates for products sold by these businesses.
o When can I expect my perks?
Depending on which perk you select, you may receive it within 1 week (FB thank yous, etc) to mid-July (swag, etc). Please see the Info section of your selected perk for more details. Community Boxes ship quarterly.
Who Am I
Hi guys! I'm Megan, the founder & owner of My Community Box. I'm a born and raised Hampton Roads resident who has grown to love this unique area of the east coast. When I was first introduced to subscription boxes, I was so excited about the concept, but discouraged that I couldn't find any products that originated from this great area. So I decided to do something about it and this is how My Community Box was born. I take pride in this area. Through this subscription, I can show you some of its wonders!
