During Small Business Week, the Board of Supervisors will be honoring businesses in each Supervisorial district for their contributions to San Francisco. This year, Supervisor Campos will be honoring El Rio, a Mission neighborhood bar that has been extremely generous and supportive of local community efforts. We are grateful for their recent fundraiser to help the victims of the Mission & Valencia Streets fire that happened in April.
