MIAMI – Due to last week’s success of the first BOB’s TAKEOUT CASH MOB, the campaign has been extended to a second phase starting on April 2 through April 11. Miami-Dade County has numerous Black owned businesses and one of the tasks of the Black Affairs Advisory Board’s Economic Development Committee is to help them increase traffic and revenue. Many businesses have been affected by the current health crisis and social distancing restrictions. Miami-Dade County Black Affairs Advisory Board’s “I Support B.O.B. Black Owned Businesses campaign encourages the community to patronize participating restaurants with takeout orders and delivery services during the second BOBs TAKEOUT CASH MOB.
