The Gorham Strong team continues to support Gorham businesses through its Split the Tab campaign, a gift card program initiative by the Gorham Village Alliance and the Gorham Business Exchange.
Details are being finalized but the hope is that this campaign will give a small cash infusion to businesses that might currently be closed and encourage the public to visit participating businesses that are open.
Through the Gorham Strong website community members can purchase a $20 gift card for $10, with the GBE and GVA matching the $10. Purchases will be limited to one gift card per person with a maximum value of $20.
Businesses are asked to visit GorhamStrong.org and complete a short application form. The first round of gift cards will be available to only retail businesses and restaurants. If additional funding becomes available, future rounds of gift card sales may open to more types of businesses.
To support this effort outside of purchasing a gift card, consider contributing to the GoFundMe® account on GorhamStrong.org. This is a 100% volunteer-driven program and 100% of the funds donated will go to the Split The Tab account, allowing for more gift cards to be sold and more businesses to be supported.
