Finances of Community Fridges During COVID

Emily Egan, Business Development Manager at The Gym has been a consistent donator to community fridges during the pandemic and wanted to learn about the upfront costs of starting a community friedges, the benefots (financial and otherwise) of a fridge and what the future of community friedges might be. To answer her questions, she speaks to Asmeret Berhe-Lumax, a fashion and beauty executive and founder of One Love Community Fridge in Brooklyn, NY. Fridges, or "freedges," can be found all over big cities and people can help themselves to whatever they need. The concept behind the fridges is simple. It's not charity, it is mutual aid. It is the idea of a two-way solution and solidarity support.
