10%SHIFT in 2012 =
350 Million $'s circulating in our Local Economy
350 Million $'s circulating in our Local Economy
"10% shift in2012" is a community-wide grassroots movement of citizens, businesses, and non-profit organizations that agree to shift their spending from non-locally owned businesses to locally owned businesses whenever possible.
This modest but important change in spending will result in a larger share of dollars spent staying in our region, creating an economic multiplier that supports thousands of new jobs and spurs a fundamental transformation of our Local Economy.
