Friends,
Despite the many difficulties of 2020, our team is feeling thankful — for new and strengthened community partnerships, for the way our member companies stepped up to help, and for this weekly connection to you, our readers! Our theme for this year’s Thanksgiving celebration is keeping it local. We’re switching things up to bring you a Small Business Saturday Guide today and a Giving Tuesday Guide next week.
In community,
The sea.citi Team
