A few Whatcom County biz tidbits to end the week...
Here’s a few biz tidbits to end the week:
Store owner Suzanne Smith pledged 10 percent of sales from the boutique on Saturday while shoppers added to the pledge with donations. According to a news release, Smith invited staff from Bob's Burger & Brew to join her and Betty Be Good models to pose completely still as live mannequins for two hours. Models took shifts ten minutes at a time.
Further to this, the boutique donates 2 percent of sales everyday to a fund called Betty's Liberty Closet which provides new clothing to the residents of Deborah’s Gate on a quarterly basis. To date the boutique has donated more than $4,500 in kind to Deborah’s Gate. To learn more about Betty's Liberty Closet & Deborah’s Gate visit www.shopbettybegood.com or www.deborahsgate.ca.
