Reno relief fund helps close aid gap to women-, minority-owned businesses Reno-Gazette-Journal 2/23/2021 Marcella Corona, Reno Gazette Journal © Andy Barron/RGJ Allie Salas, owner of Reno Aspire Fitness, stands in her gym on Feb. 18, 2021. Women and minority business owners continue to struggle amid the pandemic.
When Allie Salas realized she was $15,000 behind on her rent for the space used for her gym, Reno Aspire Fitness, she knew she had to make some sacrifices.
Gov. Steve Sisolak ordered a statewide closure on businesses as the pandemic hit in March, and gyms were one of the first to shut down.
“I haven’t been able to make ends meet and so my rent has been stacking up, Salas said, adding she pays $4,000 a month. “And when everything shut down, I had three to four months’ rent that was just hovering over my head.”
