As we lead up to the 20th anniversary of the September 11th tragedy, we are reminded of the importance of community and of supporting our neighbors. This is a way to honor those lives that were lost and to cherish the unity the grows from tragedy.This week we are challenging you all to join us in local acts of kindness! Community isn't just built through acts of volunteerism, it's also built through everyday acts of kindness. Loving Local is our new 9/11 Day centered campaign focusing on the ways we can lift up our community with simple actions.

For the week leading up to 9/11, we are challenging ourselves and our community to participate in Local Acts of Kindness. A great way to support community as individuals is through our purchasing power. Share how you are loving local with us by using #LovingLocalAZ!

 

Ideas for Local Acts of Kindness -

  • supporting a local nonprofit, through volunteering or donating

  • taking a neighbor out to lunch at a local restaurant

  • sharing your favorite local business on your social media platforms

  • buying the coffee of the person behind you in line
