SUPPORT OUR VENDORS DURING THIS DIFFICULT TIME
As COVID-19 (the novel coronavirus) has been growing across the US, it has been very hard on our vendors and all those who struggled for financial independence before and after the outbreak. To protect our vendors and adhere to social distancing we are collecting funds for our vendors to make up for the lost income.
​
​
NEW SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
We are BACK!
All vendors permitted to sell will have an additional badge with a green checkmark stating they have completed Toledo Streets safety training. Safety training included how our vendors can be mindful of social distance selling.
​
Every vendor that is back to selling newspapers will be wearing a mask for their safety AND yours!
​
To enforce these safety procedures, we ask that you only buy from vendors wearing a mask AND the safety training badge.
​
Finally, if you are excited to see the vendors back on the streets but aren’t comfortable getting close enough to purchase a paper from them yet, supporting them through our virtual map is still a viable option! Simply link their name in the PayPal memo to see that your donation goes directly to the vendor you’re supporting.
