Wishing a happy & safe Thanksgiving to you & yours!
MIMA is grateful to all our friends & partners who have been taking precautions like social distancing and wearing face coverings to keep others safe during the pandemic. Please remember that even though this Thursday is a holiday, COVID-19 is still with us and can affect you or your loved ones. The City of Baltimore encourages you not to gather with anyone outside of those who live in your home and to find virtual ways like video calls to connect with extended family. May your holiday be restful, full of love, and, most importantly, safe.
Today is the LAST DAY for restaurant owners to apply for an assistance grant or request language assistance to complete the application. Please see graphic below for more info.
