    Name: Buy a Bag Grocery Campaign for Gorge Employees
    Date: May 1, 2020 - May 18, 2020
    Registration: Sorry, public registration for this event has been closed.
    Event Description:
    They've been serving us for years. They've been on the front-lines or behind-the-scenes engine of our tourism-dependent economy, preparing food, plating meals, washing dishes, making drinks, cleaning the hotels and vacation rentals, driving our tour boats, selling our merchandise, and generally just being the all-important glue behind the visitor experience.

    With the devastating economic impacts from the global pandemic known as Covid-19, these employees have been sidelined indefinitely. They face an uncertain future and they are concerned and apprehensive.

    We want to help because as they have served and supported us, it is time for us to serve and support them.  The concept is simple and the execution is straightforward.     Simply Click the Register Now button.

    Thanks to the generosity of several participating partners we have a sound foundation to kick this off.  And now the public can participate as well, in buying Ingles' Grocery Cards in $25 increments. Working closely with the owners of our tourism businesses in the Gorge, employees will be identified and given the grocery gift cards. Chamber staff will oversee the process and ensure that only those locally impacted employees receive this direct assistance.

    The more grocery gift cards you purchase, the more we can help.
