Annie's Store!

Annie Gibson, a refugee from Liberia who first moved to New Jersey but later resettled in Phoenix, started T.A. & G African Market with her husband. By applying and receiving a loan from the International Rescue Committee, she was able to pay for essentials such as a freezer and a refrigerator. Her store provides all the essentials the African Diaspora community needs. Looking forward, Annie hopes to increase the size of her store and eventually establish a shipping company between West Africa and the United States.
