With the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic the City of Saint Albans, Northwestern Technical Center, and Saint Albans for the Future saw a need to help our Downtown businesses. Since then, other local organizations have also purchased cards to distribute. This program was created to increase visibility and remind the public that small businesses are still serving you here in Downtown St. Albans!
Participating Businesses:
Restaurants, Cafes, & Grocers
Retailers, Services, & Lodging
