Cambridge Local First
Think Local Thank Local:
Cambridge Local First is launching its fifth annual “Think Local Thank Local” campaign for charity. This year, over 41 locally owned and independent Cambridge businesses will donate a portion of their proceeds to the Cambridge Housing Assistance Fund (CHAF).
Participating businesses in the “Think Local Thank Local” campaign pledge a percentage of their revenues during the first week of peak holiday shopping after Thanksgiving. They promote “Think Local Thank Local” in their stores, on storefront signs, and in other media. The campaign aims to mutually energize both the local charity and the affiliated local businesses. Past campaigns have benefited local charities On the Rise and Food For Free.
To support CHAF, please shop where you see a “Think Local Thank Local” sign. The campaign will begin the day after Thanksgiving and runs until Friday, December 2 this year.
For more information on Cambridge Housing Assistance Fund view their Membership Listing where you will find a link to their website and more.
