Love a Local Business!

At Love a Local Business, you can vote for your favorite local businesses, thereby entering them to win monthly prizes of $25,000-$50,000 in Intuit Small Business Grants.

This month, there's a special City-by-City contest going on, in which the two cities that love their local businesses the most will each receive $50,000 in grants. Each of five random local businesses in each of the winning cities will receive a $5,000 hiring grant, and the Chamber of Commerce in each city will be awarded $1,000.

Philadelphia is not yet on the leader board for this contest! The City-by-City challenge ends on September 30th, and, as of this writing, we apparently need to nominate only 173 businesses to surpass San Francisco, CA or 139 to dislodge Humble/Kingwood, TX for a position at the top.

Philadelphia loves our local businesses the most, and we've got the numbers to come out strong and prove it! Spread the word around your social networks, nominate all your favorite local businesses, and let's bring this grant money home to Philly! Vote often at LoveALocalBusiness.com and share the link!
