SBBI

GLUW’s Small Business, Big Impact (SBBI) program is a leadership circle of local business owners dedicated to serving the community where we all live, work, and play. 

Small businesses play a critical role in maintaining a thriving local economy, and their partnership is equally critical to the success of GLUW, as we fight for the health, education, and financial stability of every person in our community.  

SBBI focuses on connecting small business owners who understand we can find sustaining solutions to our community’s toughest challenges through partnerships and the efficient mobilization of resources: time, talent, and treasure. 

Becoming a member is a stepping stone in your business' philanthropic journey -- a chance to make a real difference in the community. To join, small businesses are asked to contribute $1,200 or more to our Community Impact Fund.  Payment can be made annually, quarterly, and monthly.
