5.16.20 Danica, you're Pawesome!


We want to say a huge thank you to Danica over at Loon and Beau





Pre-pandemic, Danica would be whipping up the cutest bow ties & bandanas for your pups (and even donating a portion of the sales to animal rescues). She’s partnered with us at several events and we can’t say enough about how talented, down to earth, funny, and really just what an amazing human she is.

During COVID19 she’s continuing to show just how selfless she is by providing face coverings to those in need. Danica has started a great Buy One Give One initiative which results in donating a face covering and ear saver to local healthcare workers. Take a look at the post below to see some of the results from that initiative, it’s amazing!

Danica, we want to thank you for your generosity personally to our rescue but also for supporting the local community. Not all hero’s wear capes, but maybe you should ❤️

Here's a post from her page that made us smile:

My hope is that this is one of the coolest things you see all day.
I’ve been promising to fill you in on what we have been brewing up and I am so sorry that I have not don’t that sooner but here is one of the big reasons why.
When I started my buy one give one on face covers I knew there was a huge need for the general public as well as for the folks on the frontlines of the community. The need was larger than I could fill alone so I started the MN Mask Initiative.

We are a group of sewers and do gooders doing what we can to provide face covers, ear savers and hand sanitizer (shout out to Bent Brewstillery for that!!!!!) to folks in need.
Our biggest honor so far: working with the Maple Grove Governor to get all masks collected at the fire stations last Saturday clean, sorted, packed and donated to local nursing homes, health clinics, non profits and so much more.
This is what 5,000 masks look like. Take that in. Can’t believe the community we have in Maple Grove as well as Minnesota- kindness and well being will always win here.
My boyfriend, @darling_kyle1 (furloughed chef), spent 3 days single handedly getting these ready for distribution. Am I a lucky girl or what? Stay tuned and stay safe everyone.
