Kim Tran, a bag designer with experience at Crocs, Vera Bradley, Vince Camuto, Coach and others, has some fundamental issues with the fashion industry. She believes it has stopped focusing on quality design and no longer cares about what’s best for customers and employees. This realization inspired her to launch her own mission-driven bag brand, Practice. She calls the brand’s no frills design “a mix between Prada and Patagonia”, and people are starting to get excited. Her best-selling product, the large Karma backpack, features a practical, minimalist design, is made in limited small batches. Practice What You Love https://www.practicewhatyoulove.com

Imagine this: you call your insurance cohttps://www.patientsrising.org/mpany with a simple question about an outstanding charge on your account. They can't answer it and direct you to your doctor’s office, which then blames the pharmacy, who tells you to call your insurance back. How many times does the average American find themselves in this frustrating loop, trying to get basic information about a healthcare system that should be working for them? Too many to count. That's where Patients Rising comes in.
Patients Rising is a grassroots patient advocacy organization dedicated to finding comprehensive policy solutions to improve patient access to healthcare.

The company is also working to get products and features out for the impending holiday shopping season.
