Why Shop Small and Support Local

 Shop Small

Three questions about shop Small and Support Local 

  • What does it mean to shop small?  
  • Why does it matter?
  • Who does it benefit?

The term shop small means to buy from small business and not the big box stores. In my state, New York,  25% or 1 in 4 business have permanently closed in the first two years of the pandemic.  Where you spend your money matter and helps keep local business in your community.  Those local business support local causes and charities because we are close to them.  As an artist, and entrepreneur,  I know what is means to put everything into my business. 

For every $100 you spend at a local business,  $68 stay in the community.


BLACK LIVES MATTER

 Free the People ROC is the group in Rochester, NY.  



March 23rd is three years since Daniel Prude was killed by police. Their graphic of events next week.  


I believe in supporting my local community. As an ally,  I know we need to listen and show up to support groups in our city.  FTP ROC is a vital part of our community.
