Hello loves - sorry for disappearing... its been a very heavy few days here in the Twin Cities and I have been glued to the news. We have come together here before for the community in so many ways, and its time to do that again if you have the resources to share.
So - two things - 1 post.
1: Mention your favorite (or your own) Black Owned Businesses in the comments below. I (and many others) wanna shop and support you!
2: Make a donation of any amount to any of these organizations below and I will have Rafflecoptor pull a name for someone to get a MFRB Budget Box. This has worked SO WELL raising money in the past and with all the retail being cut I have plenty of shorts to do it again. I won't have a way to get us a tally for total donations this time, but thats okay. We know its going where it needs to go.
To enter - make a donation (any donation size) to any of these places (some make it very simple and take direct paypal donations). And submit here at the blog/rafflecoptor form. Here is a list to choose from for your donation.
