Project 3/50 is a national movement that encourages communities to “buy local” from independent retailers and service providers. “For every $100 spent in independently owned stores, $68 returns to the community through taxes, payroll, and other expenditures.” For complete details, visit www.the350project.net.
HOW IT WORKS: Consumers choose three (3) participating Project 3/50 companies, and commit to spending a total of fifty ($50) dollars among the three businesses over the course of a month.
JOIN: Participating businesses receive FREE listings on the national Project 3/50 site and GoStaffordVA.com. Register here, AND be sure to notify the Stafford Economic Development office by emailing Bethany Miller: bmiller@co.stafford.va.us.
