Toyota’s Community Service Announcement Targets Hardest Hit Communities In Fight Against COVID-19

PLANO, Texas, April 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the lives of millions of Americans from rural towns to cities, Toyota Motor North America (TMNA) has created a Community Service Announcement (CSA) to bring awareness and credible information to the African American and Hispanic communities around the country which are among the hardest hit by the virus.

<div id="prni_dvprnejpg554cleft" style="WIDTH: 100%; TEXT-ALIGN:…

Titled #UsAgainstCOVID, the CSA, featuring a number of high-profile African American and Hispanic celebrities including Anthony Anderson, Cedric The Entertainer and Lupita Infante, aims to help these affected communities understand the risks, share steps on how to avoid contracting the virus and direct them to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) web site for more information.

«With the aim of giving back to the American communities in which we operate, we partnered with high-profile celebrities to bring an important prevention message to communities of color that have been disproportionately impacted by this deadly virus,» said Chris Reynolds, chief administrative officer, Manufacturing and Corporate Resources for TMNA. «We moved quickly to make this CSA and are hopeful it will make a meaningful impact in the communities hardest hit by the COVID pandemic. We’re all in this together and we must work together to regain the health of our country, no matter where we live.»

The CSA debuted on BET’s social channels during their Saving Our Selves (S.O.S.): A BET COVID-19 Relief Fund Effort broadcast last evening and will continue to run on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and other digital channels through May 6. This CSA includes videos in 60-second and 30-second formats in both English and Spanish.

According to CDC data, African Americans were hospitalized at higher rates than whites for COVID-19. Several states also released their own data showing that African Americans are dying at disproportional rates from COVID-19. And in some major cities, more Hispanics per capita are succumbing to the illness than any other ethnic group.

Virginia 30 Day Fund & Fairfax County NAACP Team Up To Fund Minority-Owned Small Businesses

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., April 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Virginia 30 Day Fund and the

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., April 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Virginia 30 Day Fund and the Fairfax County NAACP announced today that they have launched a partnership to provide direct financial assistance to minority-owned small businesses in Northern Virginia that are struggling to meet payroll, preserve health coverage and save jobs as they await recently approved federal funding in light of the COVID-19 crisis.

Backed by a fundraising commitment by Fairfax County NAACP and the Virginia 30 Day Fund, the partnership will empower the Virginia 30 Day Fund to expand its reach even further as it works to provide much-needed financial assistance to a diverse array of Virginia small businesses. Since its April 6 launch, the nonprofit Virginia 30 Day Fund has funded over 90 Virginia small businesses, and continues to review applications and fund additional Virginia small businesses each day.

As NBC Washington reports, «[o]ne of the businesses Snyder’s fund is helping support is the Springfield Collision Center, a family-owned collision repair shop. Thomas Kim’s father, Yong, opened the shop after immigrating to Northern Virginia from South Korea decades ago. ‘Kind of living the American dream,’ Kim said. ‘Opens up his own shop … taking care of his family.’ Taking care of the family is proving difficult now that business has slowed to a crawl … ‘We’re just looking for any help as our family’s livelihood is at stake,’ Kim said…»

Additionally, Fairfax NAACP President, Sean Perryman, and Executive Council Member Naveed Shah will join the Review and Funding Committee for this partnership with the Virginia 30 Day Fund.

«The small business community is in desperate need of support due to the pandemic. Fairfax County NAACP is excited to expand its effort to assist the community by partnering with the Virginia 30 Day Fund,» said Sean Perryman, Fairfax County NAACP President. «The money raised and given out will be crucial as minority-owned businesses make up 41 percent of the small business community. These forgivable loans will be a vital lifeline that will have a positive impact for employees and families throughout Northern Virginia.»

«Small businesses throughout Virginia are hurting right now through no fault of their own, so we want to do everything we can to reach every community in the Commonwealth to the greatest extent possible, and ultimately save as many Virginia jobs as possible,» Pete Snyder, the nonprofit Virginia 30 Day Fund’s co-founder, said. «The Fairfax County NAACP’s partnership in this effort will be invaluable in helping the Virginia 30 Day Fund identify and aid even more struggling small businesses, especially those backed by minority business owners. We want to do everything we can to help so they can keep their employees on payroll and make it through this crisis.»

The Virginia 30 Day Fund application process is designed to be quick and easy for qualified small businesses in Virginia:

Visit va30dayfund.com.
Fill out a one-page form.
Submit a brief video (up to three minutes) about the business and its employees.
Approval will occur within three days, and approved businesses can expect an immediate transfer of funds.

Virginia businesses that qualify for assistance from the Fund are small businesses:

Employing three to 30 people;
Based in Virginia and operating for at least one year;
Owned and operated by a Virginia resident.

The funds dispersed to qualified businesses by the nonprofit Virginia 30 Day Fund do not need to be repaid. If businesses that receive the Fund’s assistance do, at a later date, wish to «pay it forward» to another Virginia small business in need of assistance, they may do so by directing those dollars back to the Fund, which will disburse the money to another qualified Virginia business.

The Virginia 30 Day Fund was also designed to be «open-source,» so it could be replicated in other states and localities throughout the nation. The 30 Day Fund model has already been replicated by business leaders in Georgia, who just days ago, launched the Macon-Bibb 30 Day Fund and a 30 Day Fund is expected to be launched in Pennsylvania as soon as next week.

Texas home sales increase in first quarter of 2020; COVID-19 creates uncertainty for second quarter

AUSTIN, Texas, April 22, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Home sales and median home prices across Texas experienced a moderate increase in the first quarter of 2020, according to the 2020-Q1 Texas Quarterly Housing Report released today by Texas Realtors. Although this time period includes the beginning stages of the COVID-19 outbreak, the statistical representation of its impact on the Texas housing market will be made…

«The housing statistics for the first three months of the year show the continuation of more than a decade of growth in the Texas housing market,» said Cindi Bulla, chairman of Texas Realtors. «However, the rapid growth of the global pandemic we are facing is poised to affect this momentum. Before this unprecedented event and the economic downturn and shelter-in-place orders, our biggest market concern was the lack of affordable housing to meet the tremendous demand.»

During the first quarter of 2020, 75,052 homes were sold in Texas, jumping 7% compared to the first quarter of 2019. Statewide, the median price increased 5.1% to $241,500. Price class distribution showed that the largest percentage of homes sold across the state (33.8%) were in the $200,000–$299,000 price range.

Jim Gaines, Ph.D., chief economist with the Real Estate Center at Texas A&M University, commented, «Sales activity in the first quarter experienced strong momentum. However, as a result of COVID-19, many sellers have begun pulling their listings to wait out the quarantine. This will only add to our housing shortage and strained inventory availability. Sales are anticipated to drastically drop in Q2, as we’ll be comparing our market to the previous record-breaking year. In the long-term, there will be continued demand within the Texas housing market as long as the job market is able to rebound quickly.»

Active listings dropped 8.9% to 91,363 listings in the first quarter of 2020. Texas homes spent an average of 67 days on the market during the same time frame, one day more than the first quarter of 2019. Housing inventory in Texas decreased 0.5 months from 2019-Q1 to 3.0 months of inventory.

Chairman Bulla concluded, «While these statistics will serve as an important historical reference and benchmark for future recovery, they don’t represent the full market impact of COVID-19. The data for the second and third quarter of 2020 will be the market story, giving us a better look at the post-crisis implications on the Texas housing market. The good news is we went into the disruption with positive velocity and will be ready to come out the other side with a swift recovery. In the meantime, opportunities are everywhere, and we Texans always outperform expectations.»
