Please Help Small Neighborhood Vendors: Keep Enamoo's Lights On In Carroll Gardens

So many BoCoCa businesses have been struggling to survive during these many weeks of our Covid-19 confinement. No doubt, the smaller, individually-owned stores have been affected the most and are certainly deserving of our help if we want them to continue to be part of our neighborhood after this is all over.

One such business is Enamoo, which has been part of the community for twenty years, first out of a storefront on Smith Street near Atlantic Avenue, and more recently at 248 Smith Street in Carroll Gardens.

The store/gallery sells a wonderful eclectic selection of home decor, Brooklyn apparel, and beautiful original Brooklyn-themed artwork.

Enamoo's owner Un Sook Lim has reached out to local residents and patrons through a Go Fund Me Campaign to write:

Dear Patrons, Neighbors and Friends,

The weeks of the COVID-19 lockdowns continue and the outlook for me to re-open enamoo remains uncertain. I have depleted my savings in an effort to keep up with the bills.

I opened enamoo 20 years ago on Smith St, been through ups and downs but never given up. The love and support from my beloved customers and neighbors makes that possible. This time it's different.

The Government mandated a shutdown in an effort to 'flatten the curve' of COVID-19 infections . I understand and support that but differentiations of businesses as 'essential' or 'non-essential?

Every small business is essential. If there are people on the payroll who depend on their paychecks for food, clothing, and shelter, make no mistake—the business is essential. It's also essential to the neighborhood, imagine one without small stores.

Please help me keep the lights on for enamoo with cash donations, sharing this fundraiser on social media or by shopping at my Etsy store enamoobrooklyn

I'll be most grateful for your support no matter how small and hope to see you all in person again.

Kind regards,

Lim

P.s: Your orders of custom-made t-shirts, hoodies, onesies, hats and patches are also a great way to support me.
