Shop Local This Holiday Season | |
|
The holiday season is in full swing, and we continue to share with our residents about the value and importance of choosing to support our local small businesses.
Shopping locally stimulates the local economy by keeping more dollars circulating through our community. These dollars support local jobs, local business-to-business sourcing, boosts philanthropic activity, and generates revenue for public infrastructure projects and services to maintain the high quality of life we all enjoy here in Rancho Cucamonga.
