Go LocAL’s recipe for community success by Rachel IngRam Entering its fourth year of existence, the Go Local loyalty card program is steadily expanding, with more than $13,000 donated directly to Asheville City Schools last year. The movement grew out of one local business owner’s desire to see businesses like hers collaborate and support each other to strengthen the local economy. "The Go Local movement highlights local businesses integral to the unique culture of Asheville,” says Franzi Charen (pictured), executive director of Asheville Grown Business Alliance, and co-creator of the Go Local card program. “We promote smart growth over rapid expansion. We believe in building better businesses that include people and planet, not just profit. We want to promote a new approach to economic development that levels the playing field." This year, more than 430 certified locally owned businesses have already joined the 2016 network, and more businesses will be accepted throughout 2016, with updated directory listings available online at ashevillegrown. com. “Every week, we add more businesses to our online directory,” says Charen. The Asheville City Schools Foundation and AGBA joined forces in 2011 to brainstorm ways to help support the public school system, and the Go Local card was born, she says. “The Go Local card, specifically, was developed to link a thriving local economy to healthy public schools.”

For every $16 card sold, $8 goes directly to the Asheville City School to fund projects like: • Isaac Dickson Elementary’s garden program • Claxton Elementary’s media center renovations • Ira B. Jones Elementary’s fifth-grade students’ field trip to Washington, D.C. • SILSA and Asheville High’s purchase of instruments, art supplies and lab equipment. “It’s a great way for the community to work collaboratively to support both local businesses and schools,” says Kimberly Dechant, principal of Claxton Elementary School. “Public education cannot survive without the support of its people.” Each Asheville City school is partnered with three participating businesses, typically in close proximity to the school. Once that connection is made between the local business and the school, for each card sold by those businesses, $8 goes directly to its partner school. What’s more, business owners are encouraged to nurture their relationship with the school through nonfinancial support as well. Profits from online Go Local card purchases
can also be designated to go to a specific school, or flow to the ACS Foundation and be used for programs that benefit all schools in the system. “We’re connecting our local entrepreneurs to the kids in our schools, which is crucial to developing the next generation of inspired businesses,” Charen says. The remaining $8 goes to the Asheville Grown Business Alliance to cover the cost of administering and expanding its work. While annual card sales generally land in the neighborhood of 2,000 per year, Charen says she dreams of selling 6,000 cards in a year. “Then the base of who we can reach with the program becomes really widespread.” To that end, AGBA is offering bulk rates for anyone wanting to purchase 10 or more cards at a time. Fifty percent of the purchase price still goes directly to whichever ACS school the purchaser designates, or is spread evenly among all ACS schools. “The money flows back to the kids,” Charen says.
Individual cards can be purchased from a number of local retailers (See “Where to buy your Go Local card” on page 9 in this guide), or online at ashevillegrown.com. Online purchases also include a Love Asheville sticker. When shopping, Go Local cardholders simply show their loyalty card at any of the more than 430 participating independent businesses to receive exclusive deals and perks. “The card is very affordable,” Charen notes. “Literally by one or two visits, you recoup the cost of the card, easily.” Customers are not the only ones who reap benefits, though. The program is intentionally designed to spur a cycle of success. Entrepreneurs collaborate in support of each other and to advance the program, community members are consistently reminded of the importance of supporting the local economy and our next generation actively participates in building a healthy community. As a result, community relations, schools and the local economy are all reinforced. “Everyone is Charen says.

how the
tortoise
Nature Center, there lived a hare and tortoise. The hare was known for being the fastest animal in the whole town, zipping and hopping and zooming about. Tortoise, on the other hand, was thoughtful, yet as slow and steady as molasses in January. The hare had plans to bring in a BIG chain store, the hundredth of its kind. He knew he could build it faster and bigger than anything Deep in the forests of Asheville, in local. The chain’s stockholda cozy wood not far from the WNC ers would be so proud to see the

money leaving Asheville and lining their pockets. The tortoise, on the other hand, had confidence in the people and leaders of this magical town. She wasn’t concerned with that ol’ hare and challenged him to build community instead. Her business would be different than his; she would share the ownership and success with her coworkers, make sure everyone got a living wage and strengthen her business by using the talents of other locally owned businesses. Plus, she

beAt the hAre had two secret weapons: a powerful little card from the strong Go Local movement and a community of people who understood the importance of keeping their home unique and full of art, music and laughter. The hare built a towering building with stainless steel doors and glass ceilings. As he lay down to take a nap, he chuckled as he looked across the street at ol’ slow poke’s effort. The tortoise was hand-painting a sign for her storefront, picking out interesting pieces from local
artists to put in her shop and ordering takeout for her co-workers from a local kitchen down the street. They both called out to the city leaders to cut the ribbons and welcome their businesses. All of tortoise’s neighbors and friends lined up outside her shop, excited to support the thoughtful work of their dear friend. The hare, on the other hand, looked angrily across the street as his cheap items sat in piles with only one or two people wandering among them.
So, "don't brag about your lightning pace, for slow and steady won the race!" And that is exactly what friends and family in Asheville do by choosing to Go Local.

FUN FACTS! When you go local, 3 times more money stays in our community than purchasing from a chain. For every $10M in sales Amazon employs 19 people while local businesses create 47 jobs. Local businesses donate TWICE as much per employee to charitable causes than large corporations. All of the above facts have been taken from the research done by ilsr.org and civic economics

“We believe that creativity and cultural health is a key component of an authentic, vibrant community. The Go Local movement helps us spread these values that are crucial to the future vibrancy of our home.” --------KITTY LOVE ASHEVILLE AREA ARTS COUNCIL
cArd sALes heLp renovAte cLAxton’s mediA center Students at Claxton Elementary now have a dedicated research station, with new tables and chairs funded by last year's sales. Photo by Rachel Ingram “We’ve been using our Go Local funds to support media center renovations,” she says.
The newly renovated media center at Claxton Elementary was made possible almost entirely by funds generated from Go Local card sales in 2014. Jamie Allbach, library media coordinator, says she is grateful to Go Local, and for the fact that it allows schools to independently decide how to use the funds based on the students’ needs.
As a result of last year’s Go Local card sales, Allbach was able to create a research station — outfitted with new tables and chairs — and purchase a full wall of bookshelves for the school’s media center. “The next big project for us is the carpet, and we’re only a couple thousand dollars short of having all new carpet,” says Allbach. Moveable shelving and tables, she says, will allow the media center space to be
transformed to accommodate varying class sizes and other special groups. Claxton Elementary is linked to three neighboring business partners: Blackbird Framing, Rosebud Video and HomeGrown. Proceeds from Go Local cards purchased at these businesses benefit Claxton Elementary School. “They [the Go Local folks] put a lot of effort into making those connections for the schools,” Allbach says, “and helping the schools have a good network of business partners to support them.” — Rachel Ingram
