An increase in online shopping and adoption of alternative delivery methods are the most obvious trends. But what the pandemic has also uncovered—call it a silver lining—is an increased sense of community. We are all in this together. And our communities rely on the small businesses at the heart of them.

Small business owners have been hit especially hard by the measures and government mandates set to keep people safe. Many self-employed people have been forced to close their doors. According to one report, during the first three months of the pandemic’s surge in the US, small business revenues were down 40% overall, and 40% of small businesses closed. Some may not reopen. Others have made clever pivots to service their customers without human contact.

We have choices right now.

We, as a global community, can secure the futures of those resilient independent business owners and help them shine. This year, consider diverting your dollars from big-box stores to local businesses—you may even discover a new favourite destination for buying gifts.

Surprisingly) Just a minute ago, I was sitting here serious, probably because I wrote and sent an important letter to the "authorities" of my city and I do not remember what is in each tab, I open the tab and surprisingly, but nothing has opened - is not loaded, only your face across the screen and I'm already smiling, then after a few moments began to download other information, video began to produce) I look at you how much you have charm, beauty look and the mood rises - relax) 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
