Helpful resources to support BLM

At Chip we believe that it is the responsibility of those with privilege to speak out against structural racism and other forms of inequality.

We stand in support of George Floyd, his family, and the Black community in the USA and worldwide.

Here is a list of resources that our team has been using to make donations, educate ourselves, and help push for change. Please do let us know if there’s anything we can add.
