TITLE: SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY PROCLAMATION.
STRATEGIC
GOAL: Open, Engaged & Responsive Government
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Proclamation declaring November 30, 2024 as Small Business Saturday.
BACKGROUND:
Saturday, November 30, 2024 is Small Business Saturday, a day to celebrate and support small businesses and all they do for their communities. California has 4.2 million small businesses, which is more than any other state in the country. Every time you pick up a coffee at your local café, grab lunch at the mom-and-pop shop or buy a new handbag from a local store, you are making an impact in your community. For every dollar spent at a small business in the United States, approximately 67 cents stays in the local community.
The City of Diamond Bar encourages residents to support small businesses and merchants on Small Business Saturday and to shop small throughout the year.
