How Presently Came To Be…
After scouring the internet for the perfect gift box to send her first-year university daughter—one that truly said, “I miss you”—Amber realized the options just weren’t cutting it. So, she did what any determined mom would do: she made her own.
Presently was born from that moment—a gift box company designed to send love, comfort, and all the little pieces of home that matter most when you’re living away. As Founder and Chief Gifting Officer, Amber built Presently around one simple idea: when your child moves out, your care doesn’t stop—it just shows up in new ways.
With a natural talent for making people feel special (and a borderline encyclopedic knowledge of ribbon types), Amber curates each box with intention—blending thoughtful, high-quality items with a sense of warmth and familiarity. Every detail is chosen to help students feel supported, grounded, and a little closer to home, even on the days they miss it most.
What is Presently?
Amber MacLeod is the heart behind Presently, a thoughtful and creative way for parents to send love to their university, college or any child away at school—delivered in the form of a beautifully curated box. As a mother, maker, and natural connector, Amber knows how meaningful it is for students to feel supported, even from miles away. That’s why she created Presently—to make it easy for families to send a little piece of home, delivered through the mail.
