HALDIMAND—Libro Credit Union is calling on the people of southwestern Ontario to show their support for local businesses with the launch of the Loyal 2 Local Challenge.

As part of Libro’s ongoing work to grow prosperity for everyone in the region, the credit union is asking the public to make a purchase at a local business and join a massive effort to promote those businesses at a time when so many are fighting to survive.

Libro, a certified B Corp, has started a wave of support for local businesses. On Friday, May 22, each of Libro’s 700 employees received $25 to spend at their favourite local business. They were asked to post about it on social media, tagging Libro and using #Loyal2LocalChallenge.

“Libro’s Loyal 2 Local Challenge is an opportunity for people to show their passion for our local businesses, products and services,” said Kim Flemming, Branch Manager/Coach at Cayuga’s Libro Credit Union. “Here in Haldimand and Norfolk counties, there are plenty of ways to join in and we all have our favourite places, from garden centres to restaurants, and from butchers to golf courses!
