BUYcotting to Build Better Communities
The Susquehanna Valley Ethical Society supports local businesses in our valley communities whose proprietors operate under ethical business practices. These practices include;

1. Using locally sourced products or services wherever possible.
2. Recycling, reusing, repurposing items used in doing business.
3. Contributing regularly to a recognized charity, especially if it's a local one.
4. Supporting their employees personal development by offering scholarships.
5. Supporting a progressive cause, such as engaging in Fair Trade, or paying employees a living wage.
6. Hiring practices reflect a respect for our cultural diversity, including employing the physically or mentally challenged.
​

Why is BUYcotting important? Simply put, our small businesses and services are the lifeblood and character of our communities. Purchasing locally-made goods and using local services keeps our wealth in our own valley's Mainstreets.
Buying from a national chain like WalMart, or an online business empire like Amazon, or eating at Applebee's is comfortably predictable, sometimes costs less, and may simply seem to be more convenient. Unfortunately, every dollar you spend buying from these multinational entities is money bleeding away from our own neighborhoods.

Buying locally also creates and preserves personal relationships in the community. It promotes mutual loyalties and multigenerational patronage. This ensures the highest standards of goods and services.
