Dear Paris,


We had a great turnout and conversation about the PROMISE Act last week at East Side Connect! See more about Outreach and what you can do to spread the word. And we joined City PED staff for door knocking and then Happy Hour at Yoerg Brewing Company. We'll do it again knocking with PED June 26th w/ Happy Hour at Brunson's. Spread the word and bring the PROMISE home. This week we're looking for a few good volunteers to join district councils in pulling off the FREE Citywide Recycling Drop Off day. Always a great day on the East Side and it's a rain or shine event so you're guaranteed fun. It's another sign of summer: ESABA bringing extra sunshine and volunteer power to the PM shift. Sign up to join us.

Jun 20 Thursday - Juneteenth Celebration: Breakfast - Bakari Sellers w/ MN Humanities Center


ESABA Member Deal: EIDS Cleaning and Consulting - 15% Off

PED Staff at Yoerg knock and talk on the East Side for the PROMISE Act.


REMEMBER the PROMISE:

  • If you had less than $1 million in gross revenue in 2021 or 2022 go to The PROMISE Act site and see if you're eligible - AND APPLY
  • If you made more, pass The PROMISE Act site on to your neighbor or supplier or customer or vendor


If we do neither, the money will go elsewhere. Absolutely a promise.
