Our Story
A Little More Than a Tip
We’ve all experienced it - the service that was so great that it made our day, and the service that was so not-great that it made us wonder, “How much should I even give?”
Cheerful Tipper was created from years of those experiences, with one simple idea in mind: what if we could use a tip to leave more than just money behind? What if we could leave a little encouragement too?
That’s where our story begins…
Our Why
Why Cheerful Tipper?
Cheerful Tipper is about something different: Making Someone’s Day!
Sometimes, there’s more behind a bad experience than meets the eye.
What if, instead of adding to someone’s difficult day, we could use our words to encourage, bring a little perspective, and maybe even turn the whole situation around?
That’s the heart behind Cheerful Tipper—and the reason we created it.
Our Creator
Meet the Heart Behind Cheerful Tipper
Every idea has a beginning, and every business has a story behind it.
For Cheerful Tipper, that story begins with Kathleen Monaghan—a woman whose heart for giving and encouragement turned a simple idea into something she hopes will make a difference in people’s everyday lives.
From a memory that stayed with her for years, to a lunch with her daughter that sparked an idea, Kathleen’s journey to creating Cheerful Tipper is rooted in one simple belief:
Giving isn’t something we have to do—it’s something we get to do. And we can choose to do it cheerfully.
