Ever heard of Singles Day, 11/11? It’s a yearly observance that dates back to 1993. What started out as college kids’ gratifying response to flying solo on Valentine’s Day is now an ongoing movement – one so popular that the day sees $1 billion of merchandise purchased on an hourly basis in the largest retail market in the world, China. This officially makes Singles Day the most anticipated, online and offline shopping day in the world. It’s Amazon Prime Day on steroids, and you don’t have to live abroad to celebrate it. You deserve to treat yourself to a little something extra every now and then…and this is the perfect time to celebrate your individuality.
When you don’t have someone to keep you warm in colder weather, this long-sleeved, faux fur, NadaFair turtleneck has your back. Doubling as a stylishly warm, pullover, the sweatshirt makes a fabulous match with a pair of blue jeans. The patchwork pattern across the chest enhances this stylish, casual look for the fall and winter season. Available in small to extra-large sizes, choose from black, blue, brown, and white/pink.
In any social circle, communication is king! Whether you’re chatting with friends or making plans for the weekend, you should have the best of both worlds in technology at your fingertips….like a phablet.

Other features to consider include triple camera capabilities (including dual rear cameras), fingerprint unlocking, a large battery capacity, gravity sensor, and multi-language options.
You’re long overdue for a relaxing, night’s sleep! Now is the perfect time to say ‘goodbye’ to saggy slumbers, tossing and turning all night long, and sour dreams.

No need to worry about set-up or getting rid of your old mattress – they’ll haul it away for you.
Treat yourself to a spa day without ever leaving the home. One of the best ways to set the mood in a room is to clear the air and replace it with positive, uplifting scents. The LuckyFine Essential Oil Diffuser does just that, as a dual aromatherapy diffuser and energy-efficient, air humidifier. With this model, you’re spoiled with a lot of options. There’s seven LED light effects that switch color or stay on a single hue. You can adjust the brightness, spray effects and duration settings. Activate the mist mood and just relax. Play with different essential oils: melt away stress with lavender, get earthy with patchouli, or put some pep in your step with cooling peppermint.

In the quest to create and support a healthy, active community that welcomes and benefits women and girls, Athleta is constantly improving their clothing line to meet the distinct needs of their customers.
Stressing the significance of movement, the company believes an active body has a healing effect on the mind and soul that’s empowering, which is why it was important for the brand to answer the call for a sports bra that satisfies the specific concerns of active, breast cancer warriors. By investing in the kind of technology that results in performance products truly in tune with the female body, Athleta’s post-mastectomy line and their latest Empower Bra demonstrates their unending commitment to uplifting all women.
The design and merchandise teams at Athleta worked for over a year to develop a more accommodating option for breast cancer fighters that not only fit comfortably, but also exuded confidence and looked just as fabulous. Launched in October 2017, the first Empower Bra was revealed, a specially designed sports bra for women who have had a mastectomy.
With fully adjustable straps and removable cups that help create a custom fit, the bra blends comfort with fashionable functionality. Its overall construction and special features address unique concerns, such as changing breast size due to post-surgery swelling and the protection of healing incisions.
Response to the first Empower Bra was overwhelmingly positive and prompted a lot of constructive, crowd-sourced feedback, which encouraged Athleta to expand the possibilities of their mastectomy-friendly bra line. The new, 2.0 version of the Empower Bra exchanges a racerback style with a two-strap, yoga-inspired design that aims to specifically ease the discomfort generally felt by women recovering from lymph node transfer surgery.
To remedy the heft and agitation often associated with medical prosthetics (especially during physical activity), Athleta also offers a more lightweight alternative with their Empower Pads – specially designed inserts that provide support and accommodate the Lotus Pose, treadmill-induced sweat, kickboxing class, triathlons, and even everyday wear. Available in a range of sizes, the $10 inserts wick away sweat and are washable.
Athleta has also expanded the insert pocket in many of their sports bras, which increases the number of styles and features a woman wearing prosthetics, may consider. Empower Pad-friendly options include Athleta’s Run Free Bra line with asymmetrical straps that draw attention to the back; and the floral and botanical prints of the Hyper Focused Bra.
Not only does Athleta empower others through their post-mastectomy line, but the brand is also part of a unique community of business leaders holding the B Corp designation. Certified B Corporations run their operations for the good of the people and planet. They establish business practices and make decisions that thoughtfully take into consideration the global impact their company will have on the environment, suppliers, workers and their customers.
In addition to embracing water-saving techniques, 40% of fabrics used by Athleta to craft their clothing are made with sustainable fibers. The company also diverts 70% of their store packaging waste from landfills. Additionally, more than 2,500 workers have been empowered through fair trade and Athleta’s P.A.C.E. program, which provides women employed in their factories with the chance to develop their life skills; gain access to advanced education; and improve their financial security.
Shoppers can also make a difference with their Athleta purchases. In observance of Breast Cancer Awareness month, those who buy an Athleta Empower Bra can earn up to 8% cash back, which can then go towards a 1% to 100% cash back donation to a breast cancer nonprofit of their choice. A few to consider include the youth-focused Keep a Breast movement; Mothers Supporting Daughters with Breast Cancer; and the New York City-based Breast Treatment Task Force. You can earn cash back, support a B Corp business, and donate to a good cause all at the same time – it’s a win-win-win for everyone.
This post is authored by Drawn from Valor, a partnered nonprofit.
Let us paint a picture for you: Imagine that you have a child or a family member who has been displaying unusual health symptoms. You take them to the doctor and you wait for test results. You are anxious and scared because you just want to help them feel better. Then, you get the diagnosis. It’s Type 1 diabetes. Now, the doctor gives you a lot of information, all of which you apparently have to learn right now. It seems like a whole new language! How can anyone learn all of this? What if you make a mistake?
Enter Drawn from Valor. Drawn from Valor is a nonprofit animation studio that uses the power of animation to educate and empower children and families who are facing life changing physical or mental health issues. It’s our goal to help them live longer, happier, healthier lives by providing them with the resources they need to understand their conditions.
WHAT HAVE WE DONE SO FAR?
Drawn from Valor’s first project,Kara and the (Not So) Dire Beastie was released in July 2018 as part of a new and innovative tool to help kids and their family members learn about Type 1 diabetes. The New Onset Diabetes Educator (NODE) contains an interactive eBook that tells the story of Kara, a young girl who has just been diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Through NODE, we follow Kara on an 8-episode animated journey of discovery as she learns to manage her condition.
Her adventures bring her into contact with new friends like Sir Rynge and the RedBlooded Knight who help her care for her pal, the Dire Beastie (a play on words for diabetes). The “Beastie” represents a cell in the body. He needs a special key, which stands in for insulin, to unlock his mouth so he can eat. Normally, he is a happy blue Beastie, roaming the kingdom eating “glueclose” (i.e., glucose). He becomes “Dire” when the keys go missing. At the end of the story, when Kara learns how to manage her diabetes, she realizes the Beastie is not so dire. Our hope is that children following along will feel the same way, will have learned the disease is manageable, and know they can live full, happy lives with Type 1 diabetes. You can learn more about Kara and her adventures here.
WHY ANIMATION AND WHY ARE WE EXCITED ABOUT GIVING ASSISTANT?
Studies have shown that children learn and understand material better and at a more rapid pace when it is presented in animated form. Additionally, because of their visual nature, animations are particularly well-suited for explaining topics and issues that may be hard to understand otherwise. They say a picture is worth a thousand words; one second of animation can literally be up to 30 pictures or more.
Animation is very expensive to create. It costs us approximately $225 per second…or nearly $94,500 for a 7-minute episode. While the cost of producing animated videos is high, they can help countless people, and we offer the animations for free on our website and across social media
The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) estimates that 40,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes annually. If each of those patients used Giving Assistant and raised $2.37 through their purchases, together they could fund an entire series!
WHAT IS NEXT FOR DRAWN FROM VALOR?
While we have several projects planned, we are currently focusing on The Tales of the Golden Acorn, a series of free animated short films being created to help educate and empower young people who are directly or indirectly impacted by trauma. The series focuses on the effects, issues, and strategies for living with trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in a family setting.
While the subject matter is weighty and serious, the tales have been created specifically for young people – and are designed to bring the viewer on a journey of adventure and wonder as they learn.
Ultimately, the goal of Drawn from Valor is to empower families to transform their lives for the better regardless of the health challenges they may face. We hope that you’ll select us as your nonprofit of choice on Giving Assistant’s platform.
