Our Story

A Mother's Promise

Lily's Threads is named after our daughter, Lily, who is on the Autism spectrum.

As a parent, I've felt the frustration of knowing exactly what my daughter needed β€” and not being able to get it. Sometimes the right support wasn't available. Sometimes it existed, but the cost put it out of reach. That gap between "what my child needs" and "what we can actually get" is something no parent should have to sit with, but so many of us do.

That experience is why Lily's Threads exists. Every custom order β€” big or small β€” helps us raise money for organizations that support kids and adults with autism and other mental health disabilities, so that other families can get the help they need without the same barriers we faced.

This craft has always felt like home.

Apparel isn't new to me. My family has been in the printing business since I was young, back in the Philippines, so this craft has always felt like home. Today, my husband and I work a corporate job by day, but Lily's Threads is where our heart is β€” it's the dream I'm building, one custom order at a time.

Our Mission

More Than a Custom Shirt

When you order from us, you're not just getting a custom shirt. You're supporting a mission: giving kids and adults with mental health disabilities the opportunities they deserve.

For Individuals

Ordering a single hoodie or a one-of-a-kind tee? You matter just as much to us. Every personal order you place helps fund autism and mental health support organizations.

For Organizations

Schools, clinics, gyms, and businesses β€” we'd love to outfit your whole team. Every bulk order, big or small, helps fund autism and mental health support organizations.

Thank you for being part of Lily's story.
