Flint & Genesee Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on Nov. 18.
If you could give some extra love to any independently owned business in Flint and Genesee County this holiday season, which would it be? The Flint & Genesee Chamber of Commerce is calling on community members to answer just that question in the Spread the Cheer Sweepstakes. The contest, which is accepting entries today through Dec. 20, shines a light on small businesses in Genesee County while encouraging area consumers to shop locally.
Starting Nov. 23, the Flint & Genesee Chamber will randomly select one entry each week, for a total of five winning submissions. The business listed on the entry will receive $1,000, and the person behind that submission will win a $500 Visa gift card to put toward their holiday shopping budget.
“This hasn’t been an easy year for anyone, let alone small businesses,” says Tyler Rossmaessler, director of Economic Development at the Flint & Genesee Chamber. “That’s why this contest aims to give a small boost to some of our area businesses and the people who support them.”
