Better2gether and Remix Market: A Partnership Making a Difference

At Better2gether, our mission is to support families with medically complex children, ensuring they receive the resources, community, and care they need. Partnerships with businesses like Remix Market and Junkluggers of Central VA make our work possible, and we are grateful for their commitment to giving back.

Remix Market has always believed in supporting their community, and after five years of partnering with the CKG Foundation, they decided to expand their impact. "We felt it was important to ‘share the wealth’ and partner with a new organization," says Andy Taylor, owner of Remix Market. "I have known Stephanie Becker for a number of years, and her passion for Better2gether’s mission was contagious!"

Why Remix Market Chose Better2gether

What sets Better2gether apart is the deep level of commitment from everyone involved. "Stephanie’s passion for the mission is evident, from the Board members right down to the event volunteers," Andy shares. "Whenever we host a Better2gether event at our business, we see incredible engagement and participation. It’s a testament to how much this organization means to the community."

The Impact of Partnership

One of the most meaningful aspects of working with Remix Market is how they value seeing the direct impact of their contributions. "I love the way Better2gether shares the difference our efforts and donations make," says Andy. "It’s powerful when you can actually put a name and face to the story—you can ‘feel’ the impact."

A Culture of Giving Back

For Remix Market, partnering with Better2gether has reinforced their company’s values of mission-driven work and community engagement. "It just confirms that we are doing the right things for the right reasons," Andy explains. "Even small efforts can make a big difference, and we want to continue to be part of that."

The Junkluggers Connection

ReMix Market's existence is made possible through their partnership with Junkluggers of Central VA. Junkluggers focuses on eco-friendly junk removal, donating, recycling, and repurposing items rather than sending them to local landfills. This sustainable approach supplies Remix Market with 98% of their inventory, making the partnership even more impactful.

Encouraging Others to Get Involved

Andy has a message for other businesses considering community partnerships: "When you focus your efforts on giving without thinking about ‘what’s in it for me,’ the return on that investment—of time, effort, and good intentions—will be rewarded exponentially."

He also stresses the importance of businesses investing in the communities where they live and work. "Set an example for others to emulate. The seeds you sow today will grow into something even bigger tomorrow."

Looking Ahead to Future Collaboration

At Better2gether, we are excited to continue our partnership with Remix Market and Junkluggers of Central VA and look forward to more opportunities to work together. Thanks to partners like Remix Market and Junkluggers, we can continue to provide essential support to families navigating the challenges of caring for a medically complex child. Together, we are making a lasting impact, and we invite others to join us in this meaningful work.
