Celebrate Black History By Shopping at These Small Businesses
By using your Stash Stock-Back® Card, you can even earn a percentage back in stock.
During Black History Month, you can celebrate by supporting Black-owned businesses.
You might already have your own list of Black-owned businesses where you like to shop. If you don’t, we at Stash have asked our coworkers to compile a list of Black-owned businesses they love, and where you can shop this month. These companies are uplifting their communities by providing their expertise to make a difference:
