Initiative Spotlight: Lights on Chinatown
Lights on Chinatown are made locally by Matt and Alice born out of the idea of exploring scents and iterating on an Asian American candle concept. In recognition of the pandemic’s impact on their daily lives and to the Chinatown community, Matt and Alice joined forces to create candles that would directly benefit the Chinatown community.
Celebrate Chinatown’s Oldest Store With Our Wing on Wo & Co. Collaboration

Golden Diner and Welcome to Chinatown Raffle Fundraiser for BIPOC Communities
We are excited to partner with neighborhood friends Golden Diner to (re)introduce the community to just a few of the many amazing small businesses in our beloved neighborhood. Chinatown has been hard hit with devastating obstacles even before the COVID shutdown, but seeing the lights of small businesses slowly come back on over the past 2 weeks has given us hope and cause for celebration. This community is unassumingly but astonishingly brave, resourceful, and resilient. And where the hell else you gonna go to get $2 dumplings?
