Local Café Serves Community During the Most Challenging of Times
David Shalvoy, owner of Christopher’s Café in Lynn, began working with the MSBDC Northeast Regional Office in late 2017 for assistance with purchasing a building. In 2020, David reached out again for help with COVID-related funding as the restaurant had been hit hard by the pandemic. With the MSBDC’s guidance, the business was able to successfully apply for both the Payment Protection Program (PPP) loan and the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL). Without the funding, the business would not have survived the last almost two years. Even more importantly, with help from a local non-profit, the Café helped feed food-insecure families through April 2021. The business continues to offer a free food program to anyone hungry…no questions asked.
