When Katrina Ervin lost her job as a result of COVID-19, she ended up turning her ice cream making hobby into a business.
Ice Cream Social launched in June of last year. It started by selling everything through Instagram to followers who would claim “dibs” on a flavor. Ice Cream Social gives proceeds to nonprofits who are fighting for social change.

If you had told me a year ago that in a matter of months I would lose my job, be told to shelter in place indefinitely due to a pandemic, watch a social justice movement take shape, start a new business making ice cream and consequently end up on national TV, I wouldn’t have believed you. It’s an incomprehensibly strange turn of events that one could never truly be prepared for.

A vegan diet means no meat or animal byproducts, including milk. Millions of people are lactose intolerant or have dairy allergies. About 65% of the human population has a reduced ability to digest lactose after infancy, according to MedlinePlus. Dairy products also can cause bloating, acne and inflammation.
