Thanks for listening and thanks for supporting our friends and neighbors in the food-service industry!
In most of these spots, we talk about the people in the food industry who are doing so much to support their guests and communities.
Today, I wanted to tip my cap to one of the talented teams that make sure we are kept informed of such things.
I have worked with Dominic Amenta of DPA Communications for many years and trust his judgment implicitly. If he has a new client, I know it will be great and I always do what I can to help get the word out.
Recently, the talented team at DPA Communications launched an initiative aimed at supporting not only their clients, but all of the local restaurants across the state that have been impacted by COVID-19. They call it “Loving Locals” and it involves other area businesses matching gift card purchases to help restaurants have enough cash on hand to keep the doors open (even if they do not touch the door handles).
If anyone wishes to participate, all they have to do is email lovinglocals@dpacommunications.com and Dom and his team will direct them toward a restaurant in need of support, paying special attention to those that have shut down temporarily in order to protect their own workers.
With DPA Communications’ Loving Locals program you can help out local restaurants even when you are not all that hungry and make sure their staff aren’t either.
