You might know Ann Sacks for the beautiful designs she brought to
Ann Sacks Tile and Stone, a company she founded in 1981 and from
which she recently retired. We at Amy Sacks Eyewear & Accessories are
proud to know her as a fiery personality with fabulous ideas, two new
businesses and many causes close to her heart.
Ann has served on numerous boards and committees including Become X (a career and life skills development program for young women), Lighthouse International (an organization helping blind or partially sighted people overcome vision loss challenges), the Jewish Federation, the American Jewish Committee and Self Enhancement, Inc. (a youth development organization).
At the forefront of Ann’s vision is the care and well-being of animals in need. For nearly forty years, she and her husband have not only supported animal clinics, but have also fostered and adopted stray pets.
Ann’s love of animals has led to the creation of The Pixie Project a foundation named in honor of her rescued terrier mix. The project is being established to provide veterinary services (especially spay and neuter) for low-income families and will be funded through her new business, Amy Sacks Eyewear and Accessories.
"My new business means more to me than the challenge of successfully weaving together art and commerce. My vision is to create products that can be enjoyed by mature men and women, while working with my daughter Amy, and helping the animals we love."
