Master Barber Lounge had a simple idea: help local children begin the school year feeling prepared and confident. When owner Cody Gonzalez reached out to NRBID to ask how we could support the giveaway, we joined the downtown business as its community partner.
NRBID helped bring the idea to the community through planning, grassroots outreach, social media promotion, and on-site event coverage. Together, the partners distributed 72 backpacks to local children ages 4 to 8.
After the event, NRBID continued to amplify the story through Downtown Cares, our new series spotlighting downtown businesses and organizations that give back to the community.
