For Businesses

If you are a business owner or manager, you can help by funding a need, donating goods or services, or a portion of your revenues during certain days. We display a list of current business promotions on our website and send this information out on our newsletter.

Here are some examples of how businesses are helping!

Microsoft Management Excellence Community

Thanks to the generous donations by the Microsoft Management Excellence Community in October 2008, with matching funds from Microsoft, we were able to purchase the supplies needed to revitalize our hoop house.  The hoop house extends our growing season, starting some crops earlier than would otherwise be possible, as well as consider growing longer-season crops like melons, peppers, etc.
