Spend The Block (STB) is a community service initiative inspired by The Blakk Co. in which community members can give or donate to the causes of black-brown neighbors, businesses, and organizations
Our mission is to create a viable platform that allows community goers an opportunity to engage in the give back of time and financial resources needed to support our community neighbors, businesses, and organizations
Our vision is to do so by inviting community goers, organizers, businesses, and organizations to come together collectively in both time and financial resources to stabilize economic growth and development within our local communities
