[Excerpt from the episode]: "It\u2019s in the work right now but it\u2019s something I want to talk about. I\u2019m (Cham Phan) from Sioux falls and there\u2019s a couple things that I want to plug. One is the One Sioux Falls Fund that helps everybody in Sioux Falls that needs help, assistance-wise. Coming up here, if you support the arts, arts is a huge thing for me and I\u2019m working with the Sioux Falls Arts Council director right now to figure out how Kaizen could help their goal of creating a fund for artists. We\u2019re trying to create a fund for artists right now and the wheel is moving. So hopefully by the time this is out, there will be an artists fund from the Sioux Falls Art Council for artists but in the meantime, you can visit the Sioux Falls Art Council website and they set it up so you can support these artists by directly buying stuff from them. That\u2019s what I recommend because at the end of the day, I got into commercial work and making my way of life starting with art. It always will be art for me. So at the end of the day, I urge anyone that can if you're not being completely destroyed by this economically, please support artists. Solely based on the fact that we've been in this struggle before the virus. This is daily life for us. If you think this is hard now, imagine doing this daily with the goal of creating to make people happy. I feel like that\u2019s what all artists are. They want to put their work out there and express things to build connections and have a shared human experience. That\u2019s not always the most profitable way of life so if you can, please support your artists."\n\xa0\nMORE KAIZEN\nInstagram : @Cham_phan\nFacebook :\xa0https://www.facebook.com/KaizenSF/ (https://www.facebook.com/KaizenSF/)\nWebsite:\nhttp://www.kaizensf.com/ (http://www.kaizensf.com/) From their website: "Kaizen means \u201cchange for the better\u201d or continual improvement.
