The
National Landing Business Improvement District (BID) teamed up with Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington (RAMW) to provide $100,000 in relief funding to 30 businesses as part of their “Love Local” campaign. Funds are allocated evenly across the eligible National Landing establishments to help cover necessary operator-related expenses including rent and employee wages.
“Our small businesses are essential to the vibrancy and vitality of the community, and we’re thankful to partner with RAMW to introduce the ‘Love Local’ program during a time of critical need,” said Tracy Sayegh Gabriel, President and Executive Director of National Landing BID. “Seeing firsthand the challenges our retailers here in National Landing continue to face during this time of recovery, it is essential that we support and uplift their efforts in every way we can.”
