How You Can Help Our Dear Co-Worker/Owner

Yoko is one of our co-worker/owners here at The Cheese Board Collective– you’ve maybe bought a cheese roll from her and experienced her warmth and kindness firsthand.  About a month ago, her spouse, Jake, contracted COVID-19 and has been on a ventilator and in an induced coma ever since.  Yoko’s been taking time off to care for their daughter, Rina, and the loss of one income and the steep decline in the other is proving to be a challenge.

We’ve established a gofundme to help the family out.  If you would like, please join us in supporting Yoko and her family.

Thank you!
