Often one of the only good things to come out of a time of crisis is the stories of people coming together to help each other and now is no exception.

In northeast Baltimore, the Harford Road corridor runs through several neighborhoods and is home to many small businesses. During these hard times, many of those businesses are feeling the pinch as fewer customers can get to them—and many have had to close altogether.

One resident, Robert Preston, had the amazing idea to consolidate the various information being posted on Facebook by assorted businesses into an easy-to-use website that gives the status of each one. Here are a few of those local businesses that are still open and desperately in need of your patronage, if you can.

Retail

The website is a labor of love for local businesses, and there is a link to submit updates or add additional restaurants. Even if your favorite local business is closed currently, you can likely still buy gift cards on their website, which is a helpful way to support them and help get funding into their hands now.
