Support your community by shopping local! As we dive into #NationalSmallBusinessWeek, let's explore the TOP 3 REASONS TO SHOP LOCAL: 1. Boost the local economy: When you support local businesses, you're not just making a purchase – you're creating jobs and reinvesting in our community's prosperity. 2. Fund essential services: Did you know that over 60% of our City's General Fund comes from sales tax revenue? By shopping locally, you're helping to fund vital services like police and fire protection, street repairs, and parks & recreation. 3. Go green: Shopping close to home reduces environmental impact by minimizing sprawl, air and water pollution, automobile use, and habitat loss. Every purchase you make locally helps preserve our planet for future generations. Let's make a difference together! Shop local and show your support for Thornton's small businesses. #ShopThornton #ShopLocal #SmallBusinessWeek #SmallBizSuccess #InvestInThornton #smallbusinessweek2024
