CIIC Launches #LoveFromaDistance Initiative

A Monday morning latte, a mid-week gift to yourself from a favorite neighborhood shop, Friday pizza — these are just a few of the ordinary pleasures that an average CIIC workweek may bring. Now that we find ourselves in a new normal, we don’t want these pleasures, or the local businesses that provide them, to disappear, which is why we’ve launched our new initiative #lovefromadistance. 

During the course of the next few months, a different CIIC team member will patronize a local business of their choice from CIIC’s cultural budget. Across our hometowns out of New York, New Jersey and Miami, each week we’ll spotlight our favorite local creators and small businesses on our social channels to keep supporting local (and find a few new favorites in the process). Please follow along @ciicpr and watch our #lovefromadistance campaign grow.

Next we encourage you to practice your own #lovefromadistance. Tell a friend about one of your favorite spots, or purchase a gift card for your own use in the future. Embrace simple pleasures and keep your community thriving.
