Charlotte & Clinton for the Porch Project - A Porch Portrait

Charlotte (31), Joey (2), Clinton (40). Kent, Ohio

Charlotte is a Manager at Tree City Coffee. Tree City Coffee was a hub for local professors, students, and the community. They roped off their seating in the early stages of the pandemic and allowed carry-out orders only. Now, they're able to take coffee orders online and deliver them through their drive-thru window. Wine too.  Business has dropped drastically, which is no surprise, but they're trying to remain open. Grabbing a quick cup of coffee is no longer something we take for granted.

Clinton is as Senior Scientist with local company, Kent Displays. Work has slowed down and Clinton worries about the future of his job - even after this slows down. He has family in Tanzania, India and Australia who are also at great risk as the pandemic continues to spread.
