Make Shop Richmond Weekend an annual celebration of our locally owned businesses and a yearly kick-off of Richmonders reinvestment in Richmond.
By
signing this petition, we can show the Richmond City Government that
the people are behind this cause and that they should be too. We want
the Richmond City
Council and the Mayor to publicly and financially support Shop Richmond
Weekend as an official
celebration of the city. Richmond benefits tremendously when our local
businesses thrive. Lets make that happen.
By
making Shop Richmond Weekend Annual we will be supporting and helping
to create local Richmond businesses as well as generate additional tax
revenue that will directly support our community. The additional taxes
that shopping locally generates will fund Richmond Public Schools and
the city's infrastructure. Shopping local also protects the
environment, helps reduce crime, builds community, create jobs, not to
mention enhances and preserves the culture that is unique to Richmond.
Help Recession Proof Richmond!

So down for this. Too many big chains moving into the area and killing the vibe.
YES PLEASE. Richmond has the best local spots and they deserve all the support they can get.
This would be amazing for the community. We really need to keep our local shops alive and thriving.
Why isnt this already a thing? Get it done.
keep it local! make it happen every single year.

Love this idea. It brings everyone together and helps out families who work so hard on their small businesses.
