Another beautiful thriving week here in the DMV. Businesses flourishing, money being given out and of course, it is the holiday season.
First up DC, Mayor Bowser wants businesses in DC to thrive and buy during this pandemic so she is upping her $910 Million Budget to $917 Million dollars for 2021 as part of her “Green Book” initiative to assist small businesses. In the ringing of thriving businesses, this weekend will be the last days of Alexandria Shop Small Week, an opportunity to show your support for the D.C. region’s largest destination for independent boutiques, so get out there and shop, for the holidays of course!
