You have heard the message time and time again - shop local. But did you know that shopping locally not only supports our local businesses but also strengthens our community?
When you spend $1 locally, about 68 cents stays in our community, supporting local jobs and services.
Here are some reasons to shop local:
1. Unique Products: Find one-of-a-kind items and personalized services.
2. Economic Boost: Your money helps local businesses thrive and grow.
3. Community Connection: Build stronger connections with local business owners and neighbors.
4. Environmental Impact: Reduce your carbon footprint with less travel and packaging.
On July 20th, let’s all support local by participating in $20 on the 20th. When you visit our local shops, markets, restaurants or get a service, let us know by tagging us in a picture of your shopping adventures on social media or by uploading to our website, and get your name put in for a chance to win $200 Heart Of Alberta Dollars!
Draw to be made Monday, July 22nd.
