Boost Business NEPA will support local restaurants through its 2021 Spread the Love Campaign.

Designed to raise money, drive online and on-site traffic, promote participating eateries and engage the community, the initiative aims to give restaurants a much-needed boost.

To participate, community members are asked to visit BoostBusinessNEPA.com and make a $10 donation in support of their favorite restaurant. For every $10 donation, which will be presented to each business as a personalized valentine, Boost Business will also give $10 through the help of match donors. Every day in February, the Boost Business leadership team will deliver the valentines to restaurants throughout Northeast Pennsylvania.

A Boost Business Restaurant Roundtable will be held later this month. All local restaurant owners and workers who would like to participate should email Boost Business at team@boostbusinessNEPA.com.
