Barrel Maker Printing, Buffalo Grove, Ill., recently began a fundraising campaign for small Chicago-based businesses that were affected by the COVID-19 fallout.
Barrel Maker lost 95% of its orders due to canceled events and business closings. Justin Moore, director of operations, decided to find a way to keep his business moving to offset the pandemic’s damaging effects.
Inspired by St. Louis-based Tiny Little Monster’s “Here For Good” campaign, Moore created his own movement entitled “Saving Small Business Chicago.” In a blog, published by InkSoft, Moore shares how his original goal of raising $25,000 grew into proceeds of nearly $61,000.
