As you’re finishing up your holiday shopping, we’d like to encourage you to shop local businesses first! Small business owners contribute a lot to our communities, including placing ads in our Grassroots Gathering Program Guide, and we want to support that effort. If you are shopping at a local small business, would you ask them to take our small business survey by visiting http://bit.ly/VMSAsurvey (link is case-sensitive) so we can learn more about the issues they care about?
If you can’t find what you are looking for at local small businesses and are planning to purchase from Amazon, you can support Virginia Organizing by shopping at http://smile.amazon.com and designating us as your preferred charity.
Thanks for your help!
Sincerely,
Denise Smith
State Governing Board
