The Glendora Chamber of Commerce today announced its participation in this year’s Small Business Saturday, taking place on November 28th. Small Business Saturday is a day dedicated to strengthening the community by supporting local small businesses.
Please join us in supporting small business by stopping by one of our local merchants and making that purchase here in town. Please remember making your purchases in town helps keep sales tax dollars in Glendora helps to fund city services and community programs. We have a great directory on the Chamber’s website at ShopGlendora.org.
Created by American Express in 2010, Small Business Saturday serves as the ceremonial kickoff to the holiday shopping season for small businesses across the United States. In 2014, nearly 3,000 Neighborhood Champions rallied local businesses and created events and activities to drive shopping at small businesses around the country. The day was also championed by elected officials in all 50 states and Washington, D.C., including President Obama.
The Glendora Chamber recognizes the importance of supporting small businesses in Glendora, the jobs they help create, and the culture they instill in local communities. According to the U.S. Small Businesses Administration, as of 2014, small businesses nationwide accounted for 63% of net new private-sector jobs created and represented 99.7% of all employer firms.1
Merchants and consumers can learn more about Small Business Saturday and how to get involved by visitingShopSmall.com and the official Small Business Saturday Facebook page.
