Please help those under attack!
Unfortunately, we had an attempted burglary that almost caused a man to lose his life. Early Thursday morning, 3 vehicles arrived to attack a single person in service of their community to try to steal an ATM. They fired over a dozen shots! We are grateful that no one was seriously injured!
We are humbly asking for support to address damages to the employee and business.
We are a minority owned business invested in supporting everyone all around us. We have been apart of this wonderful community for the last 2 decades and remained open 24 hours, even during the pandemic, to be an immediate service for our immediate. We want this place to be safe for everyone, at anytime. We consistently employ and invest in this who are often marginalized, including and but not limited to: immigrants, those with disabilities, ethnic and religious minorities, and victims of abuse. We promote other's businesses, place products at customer’s request, help facilitate relationships and respect autonomy of individuals. We stand for peace, justice and freedom for all! Anyone that has come into our store can attest to our character and commitment. Please stand with us against violence and theft, and let it be known we will not tolerate this in our community!
Anything that you can give will be gratefully received!
