Dr. Maiden is a pharmacist, former schoolteacher, entrepreneur, and mom. Her experiences in these areas inspired her to create Cubby Love Bears, a line of interactive teddy bears that teach basic Spanish and English to young kids. According to Dr. Maiden, her motivation behind creating Cubby Love Bears was to provide a linguistic foundation for kids early on and to empower them to keep up with their learning during quarantine.

Buying a pair of these star-studded sunglasses helps fund the LDF's Prepared to Vote initiative which protects voting rights and supports Black political engagement in the U.S. 2020 federal election. We’ll leave off with these words from the Queen herself: “Voting is a big way to contribute and to feel like we're making a change. But the power of voting in midterm and local elections wasn't something I was taught in school. I want to be part of informing future generations of our power.”   ![PercyRoyale-Vimeo](https://www.pressboardmedia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PercyRoyale-Vimeo.jpg?width=1075&name=PercyRoyale-Vimeo.jpg) [**Watch this one-eyed cat find his forever home: Daily Hive Vancouver + ROYALE**](https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/royale-pet-adoption-cat-canada) Each year, there are 100,000 cats and dogs in animal shelters across Canada that are up for adoption. ROYALE is hoping to help them find their forever homes and fund in-shelter improvements with their Home for Every Pet initiative: for every $20 you spend on ROYALE products, they’ll donate $5 to select animal shelters in Canada (and give you a $5 coupon for a future ROYALE purchase).

In the early months of the pandemic, a testing effort in San Francisco’s Mission District area in April revealed that the likelihood of a person becoming infected with COVID-19 depends on factors such as income, job description, living situation and whether they can follow stay-at-home and social distancing recommendations. This should come as no surprise, but it’s finally getting more medical and healthcare professionals to consider non-medical factors like the patient’s geographic location, financial circumstances, and family health history to provide the most optimal care.   ![EmilyMackey_scrnshot](https://www.pressboardmedia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/EmilyMackey_scrnshot.png?width=899&name=EmilyMackey_scrnshot.png) [**Michaels Pro: Emily Mackey + Michaels**](https://www.instagram.com/p/CEedRYnDvKz/) Calling all artists and small art business owners: your favourite art store is now offering a special program where you can purchase your supplies in bulk at lower prices -- no membership required!
