Help Save Another Small Business in the Richmond

The owners of Cigarettes Cheaper have been running their shop at 17th and Geary for over 20 years. They have become a foundational small business here in the Richmond District. In 2023 they were victims of store break-ins and robberies and lost $100k in merchandise and damage. This lawlessness and crime plaguing San Francisco caused them to lose their insurance. Now, again in June 2024, a gang of 8-10 masked thieves drove a stolen car through their door and ransacked their store, stealing over $50k in merchandise and causing $60k in damage.

If you know you these small business owners, you know that they are loyal, hard-working and loving men trying to provide for their families. Please consider making a donation to help them cover some of their losses due to rampant crime, and help them keep their business here in the Richmond District.
