Happy National Intern Day!🎉 Today, we're celebrating the five incredible interns who spent their summer here with us at The Lumistella Company. These talented students brought fresh perspectives, curiosity, creativity and enthusiasm to various teams across the organization. In their respective fields, they gained hands-on experience, contributed to meaningful projects and collaborated with team members across departments. Beyond their day-to-day work, they participated in professional development workshops, philanthropic events and learning opportunities designed to support their personal and professional growth. We are grateful for the hard work, dedication and positive impact each intern brought this summer. Watching their growth throughout the program has been inspiring, and we can't wait to see where their journeys take them next! Please join us in celebrating our 2026 Summer Interns👏🏻✨ Emma Barber Giavanna Paganucci Kay K.

What a weekend!⚾🎄 We were thrilled to partner with Big League Wiffle Ball for a festive Christmas in July celebration that brought together families, fans and a little holiday magic! It was wonderful to see so many members of The Lumistella Company be part of such a special day. Throughout the event, our mascots, Chip and Star, brought plenty of North Pole fun as they cheered on players and took part in on-field challenges. We're grateful for opportunities like these to bring The Elf on the Shelf magic to families and communities beyond the holiday season. We hope to be back again soon! ✨ #TheLumistellaCompany #BigLeagueWiffleBall #ChristmasinJuly #TheElfontheShelf

Earlier this month, our North Pole team came together for a special packing party in support of MUST Ministries.❤️ With the help of our staff and summer interns, we packed 100 kits for children in our community who may not have consistent access to meals during the summer months. Team members generously donated food, drinks and supplies, making it possible to provide a little extra care and nourishment when school is out. At The Lumistella Company, we believe in spreading joy beyond the North Pole and into the communities we call home. We’re grateful for the opportunity to support the incredible work of MUST Ministries and proud of our team for making a difference together. #TheLumistellaCompany #CommunityImpact #MUSTMinistries #GivingBack #NorthPoleSpirit
