Small Businesses are the Heartbeat of Our Communities
They’re the corner stores that create jobs. The hardware stores that help build our economy.
And the mom-and-pop shops whose very presence makes a neighborhood your neighborhood.

When: Small Business Saturday is celebrated annually on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. This year Small Business Saturday is November 29, 2014.
First there was Black Friday, then Cyber Monday. Now, there’s Small Business Saturday, the day people support small businesses.
Pledge to Shop local on Nov 30th. If millions of Americans shop small, it will be huge.
Some people put everything into their work, their name on the door and their heart into their community.
- Small Business Saturday is a day to show our support.
- A day to shop at stores owned by our friends and neighbors.
- And do our part for the businesses that do so
THE HISTORY OF SHOP SMALL
In 2010, American Express founded Small Business Saturday to help businesses with their most pressing need — getting more customers. The day encourages people to shop at small businesses on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. The single day has grown into a powerful movement, and more people are taking part than ever before.
