Ann Sacks's incredible entrepreneurial journey began with a visit to a local Portland dress shop when she was a social worker. The patterns inspired her to start a new kind of tile company, which was later acquired by Kohler. Now working on her third business, Ann's latest company Fetch Eyewear is focused on giving back. Fetch is part of a very small group of businesses identified by the Paul Newman Foundation as "hundred percenters." This group donates 100% of profits to nonprofits- in Fetch's case, they donate all their profits to the Pixie Project, a local animal rescue organization and shelter, and other animal welfare organizations.
