・・・ Be about this right here! Black Economic power to the People! Put your money where you are loved and reflected! This is a part of how we amass wealth in OUR COMMUNITY! Posted @withregram • @mswendyrose Over the past week, we’ve received countless DMs, texts, emails, and calls not only from strangers looking to support a Black-owned business, but from family and friends as well!
To say it feels a bit weird to have all of this attention in direct response to the senseless murders of unarmed Black men and women at the hands of police is a vast understatement! We would be remiss not to acknowledge the fact that the recent increase in our sales and engagement is a direct result of the current uprising, after the world witnessed the modern day lynching of #GeorgeFloyd.
While we come to grips with what’s occurred, we find ourselves with a unique opportunity to grow our business, making it easier for us to push what has ALWAYS been part of our agenda, and that’s to utilize a percentage of the proceeds to fund our “supportHER” charitable initiatives. These initiatives are meant to provide financial support and resources to other female entrepreneurs and organizations aligned with our vision.
Our current campaign is the “supportHER Esthetician Relief Fund,” which we launched in response to the closure of their industry due to COVID-19. Since April 2020, we have provided financial donations to multiple estheticians, with more in the works!
This is one of several ways we plan to support female entrepreneurs, specifically those representing BIPOC communities (Black, Indigenous, People of Color). Stay tuned to our weekly 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐇𝐄𝐑 IG Live series on Sundays for updates on current and forthcoming initiatives.
We appreciate your support, and stand firm in the fight against systemic racism and social injustice. #BeTheChange #supportHER #BLM
With LOVE & HOPE for the future!
Wendy Rose Berry & Eugenia Marshall – Founders.
