Extra Curricular
I bought some new art for our home office via The Skateroom — not only do I love the product, their business model is fascinating.
As a Certified B Corp — they partner with artists to license their work for reproduction (in a very niche way) and donate 25% of their profits to funding education.
Positive-sum stuff.
(I am not affiliated with The Skateroom whatsoever, just a fan!)

All the best to you and yours,
Jack
