A group of tech and marketing professionals offering assistance to local businesses.
YYJLocalsForLocals is a group of community-minded tech and marketing professionals offering pro-bono assistance to local small businesses, restaurants, and bars.
The four organizers behind the project, Emily Hannan, Eve Olynyk, Tara Price, and Nathan Sorochan, have assembled a team of volunteers to support local businesses during the COVID-19 crisis.
Victoria is such a great place to live because of the amazing restaurants, bars, breweries, coffee shops, and unique local retailers. The overall goal of the project is to help make sure that when this is over and everyone is safe and healthy, all those great places will still exist.
To get work out quickly, YYJLocalsForLocals offers eight main services, listed below. Any small business in the area can request one of these services through the website located at yyjlocalsforlocals.com.
