Gift Cards For Good
The Marina Chamber of Commerce has joined together with a number of local businesses to create a new campaign page called Gift Cards for Good. This campaign page is set up for you to find out which of your local favorite businesses is selling gift cards so that you can help support them without actually being there in person. And, since so many of you have expressed interest in how you can help front-line organizations, we have reached out to a few here in the Monterey County that are accepting donated gift cards and certificates. We have listed these front-line organizations, and listed them on the same page to make it easier for you to donate.

Our very first Marina Cash Lunch Mob event was a huge success. 🙂 “We were very pleased with the Marina Chamber of Commerce coming to our restaurant for its first Friday Lunch Mob. They did a great job advertising the event on their website, Facebook and Instagram, giving us good visibility online. Thanks to them, our parking lot was full and we had several clients trying out our food for the first time. It was a great experience for our restaurant!” – Dezen, Ho Wah chinese restaurant Owner .
