WHY iValueLocal? Studies show when you spend $100 in a local business, $73 remains in our community to support our local economy. When you spend $100 in a corporate store only $43 remains. Shopping online usually sends every dollar out of town. You can make a significant impact on the prosperity of our community by the business you choose to support. Did you know that local owners contribute more than 250% more money to charities than corporate businesses? Our local charities depend heavily on these donations and the current economic crisis has made charitable giving plummet. There has never been a more critical time to focus spending in ways that support our community. With iValueLocal, however, we are not just asking you to do what is right for the community, but also giving you great savings that will help your own bottom line. We mean it when we say, "It pays to shop local!" |
