You Can Help Local Businesses
Here are some ways to continue supporting local business during this unprecedented time:
- Give the Gift of Business: Buy a gift card to use later, shop locally online when possible, or order take out from local restaurants.
- Keep Your Subscription: Continue your gym, exercise class, painting class, music and dance lessons, etc. Many small businesses rely on your support to keep their doors open and pay their bills. Your continued support can save that business!
- Buy Now, Pick Up Later: If you were planning to make a purchase, call the business to see if you can still make the purchase but pick it up later.
- Ask How You Can Help: Contact your friends who own a business and see how you can help.
- If You Do Feel Well and Go Out: Consider a generous tip for services that you use. Be kind and offer a smile. Keep your distance. Wash your hands.
