CONNECT ·2025 Grants ChallengeFrom Ashes to Assets: Black Business Recovery
When wildfires damaged Black-owned businesses in Altadena and Pasadena, communities lost vital sources of livelihood, culture, and connection. Umoja Food Collective, partnering with The Wild Seed, will provide rapid relief grants to 30 Black businesses while collecting critical data on their recovery needs. By amplifying business owner voices and building community-informed solutions, we're transforming disaster response to preserve the economic infrastructure that sustains Black families and neighborhoods.
