Small Business Saturday is a marketing initiative created and promoted by American Express to encourage holiday shopping on the Saturday after Thanksgiving in the United States, during one of the busiest shopping periods of the year.
Small Business Saturday encourages holiday shoppers to patronize brick and mortar businesses that are small and local.
The first event was created by American Express, in partnership with the non-profit National Trust for Historic Preservation, Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino, and Roslindale Village Main Street in 2010. This year marks the 15th year for the initiative.
There are many businesses in Barnesville, Quaker City, Woodsfield, Bethesda, Morristown and beyond that support local schools, organizations and causes…..Give back by supporting them year round but especially, Saturday, November 30.
