Two of our grantees, @nvmyeyewear33 and @hakimsboo

Two of our grantees, @nvmyeyewear33 and @hakimsbookstore were featured in the @wsj article titled ‘Everything is Gone...’ Both businesses are prior grantees that also received an Emergency Relief Grant from TMF for Covid-19. Both were lucky not to sustain significant damages from looting. Other businesses that have sustained damage are going to need help. Businesses that were looted have the double impact of loss of income from Covid-19 and now significant expenses from damage. We need your help to support BIPOC owned businesses impacted by Covid-19 and looting. Donate today! Support local independent businesses. Link in bio. .
