[BronXchange @bronxchange]

When your business creates equity, you get comfortable with being first! Facing a health ecosystem ranked last in NY State, we trust partners like @BornJuice who knew we needed to start rebuilding and rethinking how we provide food in the #Bronx from the ground up! #BronxStrong

[BronXchange @bronxchange]

Having partners like @wokefoods and @BioClassicClean that are cooperatively owned shows us that creating businesses that are for us and by us uplifts everyone it touches while cementing our culture into the economic activity happening in the #Bronx! #OwntheBronx

[BronXchange @bronxchange]

Everyone deserves access to wellness! Our model is about empowering people like Yosara Trujilla of @SWDYTheBronx who made sure that no matter what the #Bronx wasn’t going to be left out of having access to a healthy lifestyle. #BronxStrong

[BronXchange @bronxchange]

Our partners answer the call when it comes to building community wealth! Having been in business for almost 10yrs while paying living wages to their employees; their entire staff of A1 Food Distributor still made up people who were born and raised in the South #Bronx!

[BronXchange @bronxchange]

This is the mission! Not just for our partners at YVP Media Solutions but for us as well! We are building the agency in the #Bronx to call out the issues facing our community and the economic power and influence to be able to fix the problems ourselves. #OwntheBronx

[BronXchange @bronxchange]

When our institutions contract outside of the #Bronx, it means less opportunity for local entrepreneurs! Partnering w/ local businesses like Skedaddle Pest Mgmt that reinvest where they serve is our defense against corporations looking to control of our communities. #OwntheBronx

@DJPusha was able to build a business out of his love for music and his community! When we channel our resources to entrepreneurs who understand how their work impacts the people around them we give life to more of the talent that can only be found in the #Bronx! #BronxStrong
