“A global pandemic, unprecedented economic uncertainty, ongoing racial injustice, and climate change are all having devastating impacts on our families, our communities and our world, said Kwik Lok co-owners Stephanie Jackson, Kimberly Paxton-Hagner and Melissa Steiner. Now more than ever, it is that feeling of family, of respect, and of care that means everything. Caring about our Kwik Lok family means we must extend that care to their communities and the planet we share. We’re doing everything we can to do right by all three.”
