Our CEO also wrote a blog post around initiatives and commitments we are making as allies to the Black community.

We will continue our commitment to improved and equal access to brand collaborations and resources to all creators in diverse communities. Now more than ever, the voices of our Black creators & businesses need to be heard, shared, and celebrated.

Stay well and healthy,

The #paid Team
