Healing Hearts One Glam at a Time
Our Heart Squad delivers joy, comfort, and well-being to critically ill patients through therapeutic pamper sessions.
Our Mission
Simply From The Heart (SFTH) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose mission is to encourage well-being, raise self-esteem, and improve quality of life for critical and terminal care patients, through delivery of therapeutic personal care services.

Our Heart Squad delivers joy, comfort, and well-being through simple pleasures such as hairstyling, manicures, pedicures, makeovers, hand massages, mini-facials — and meaningful conversation.
Because face-to-face interaction is powerful, every Pamper Session begins with lowering the bed, so volunteers and patients are eye-to-eye.
The power is not in the wand or brush, but in the unparalleled team at the forefront of our mission, the pamperers whose passion and special skills bring out a patient's true identity, hidden by their illness.
Simply From The Heart delivers smiles.

The Founding Story
Simply From The Heart was founded by Jackelyn Kastanis after spending a year with her childhood best friend, Brooke Bolley, who was told at 27 she had a year to live.
It was made clear to Jackelyn that a life-threatening illness affects every aspect of life. Patients endure relentless medical treatments, interventions, pain, and isolation, which often result in depression, loneliness, fear, and anxiety.
SFTH believes that carefully selected and trained people, beyond medical providers, offer an important level of care that treats the mind, body, and spirit. This interaction is the primary focus of their services. They help to dispel the hardships of long-term illness.
