Hi, my name is Tanya. My cousin's Christina & Don own Classic & Paramount Cleaners in Ventura, CA. Paramount Cleaners opened in 1978 with Classic Cleaners opening in 1990. Both cleaners have been serving the Ventura County community for 30 + years. Both Don and Christina have been working in both cleaners since they were teenagers. Don is a 4th generation dry cleaner. 

Their small business has been hit very hard by Covid-19, a 7-month road construction & the Thomas Fires. For months they applied for small business grants; only to be turned down numerous times. Although their doors remain open to the community, business has plummeted.  They are facing the same monthly expenses with little to no revenue. 

With your help, my cousins can use your donations to pay their outstanding rent and vendor bills. Their family is enduring a great amount of stress, anxiety and worry as a result of the various challenges they have faced over the last several years.

Their business is one centered around family. It is not unusual for their customers to see their boys working in the cleaners. My cousin and her husband would be devastated to lose the cleaners, as it is their livelihood. Your financial support is greatly appreciated and is desperately needed. Thank you for helping my family members during this difficult time.
