Our Signs of Support For Juneteenth & Black Lives campaign raised $850 for Black Lives Matter. All of the pre-printed signs have been distributed. We hope you will display your BLM signs or your home-made signs today and throughout the Juneteenth weekend. (Hint: we'd love to see pictures posted below!)

Stay tuned for future events to help educate our community about racism and justice and to Stand Up for Black Lives.
