THE SPIRIT OF OUR COMMUNITY

Dear NMA Members and Supporters,

We live in challenging and uncertain times. As we continue to adapt to living in the midst of a COVID-19 pandemic, the Neighborhood Market Association has been open for business and has taken on the challenging task of helping its members with many resources to maintain their safety, adapting to State and County social distancing protocols and keeping their employees and customers safe.

Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, I am proud of the spirit of our members and the community. We have been on the front lines keeping our businesses open, providing our communities many basic daily necessities and finally helping the neighborhoods we serve in to adapt to the new norms. We have been informing our members with the latest updates on COVID-19.

A couple of weeks before the pandemic hit us, we celebrated our 25th Anniversary - I would like to thank all the attendees who made the NMA Annual Banquet incredibly successful. Because of you, the 2020 Banquet was one of the most successful banquets since our inception in 1995.

To protect each NMA member we are creating personalized Employee Handbooks. Using an advanced customized Employee Handbook that complies with state and federal laws will help your business avoid lawsuits. The NMA Executive Board and staff have been working tirelessly rebuilding the organization with an aggressive plan to increase members’ engagement. Our membership continues to grow as we provide more services and resources to ensure the success and prosperity of our members.

We are one community. We stand strong together. We are resilient in these difficult times. We are here with and for you.

Samir Salem Executive Chairman
