Riham LaRussa is not just the founder of Small Packages; she embodies the realization of the American Dream. As a daughter of first-generation immigrants, she grew up navigating the complexities of dual identities, absorbing the cultures of both the West Bank, Palestine, and the suburbs of Columbus, Ohio. This unique upbringing instilled in her a deep passion for inclusivity, diversity, and the power of representation.
Her entrepreneurial spirit led her to Small Packages, where she became a small business owner, merging her personal journey with her father’s belief that in America, anything is possible. Today, Small Packages is more than just a business—it’s a platform that champions diversity and uplifts BIPOC and women-owned businesses, ensuring they have a voice in the crowded marketplace.
Driven by the desire to inspire her daughters and others, Riham has built a company that not only delivers joy through curated gift boxes but also promotes the values of equality and empowerment. “I want my daughters to know they can achieve anything they set their minds to,” says Riham, reflecting her commitment to breaking barriers and creating opportunities for all.
Riham’s life and work are testaments to the power of persistence, vision, and the universal quest for connection. Through Small Packages, she continues to demonstrate that the American Dream is about creating spaces where everyone can thrive and share their stories. Whether you’re seeking to express gratitude, love, or solidarity, Small Packages offers a meaningful way to connect and celebrate the diversity that strengthens us all.
