Comment on Get Ready for Cash Mob Cinco de Mobo! by Cash Mob Cville

Important distinction: ‘include’ vs ‘target’.

There are 70 businesses in that plaza, all of whom, (including the one you’ve targeted to repeatedly bash) are enthusiastically supporting and participating in this celebration of a local business district. What would you suggest? invite people to visit the other 69 businesses all around them? Not hardly.

Cash mobs celebrate local businesses, and encourage the community to support them by shopping there. And if a locally-owned, locally-financed business that goes to great lengths to use as many locally-sourced products as possible, has complete control over its menu and ingredient sourcing, pays (signigicantly) into the local treasury, provides jobs AND contributes significantly to local charities and food banks…. gosh, stop me, I could go on and on… anyway, if they’re the devil…. it makes me question your intent.

You forgot to tag La Linea Bella! They’re a great new store (1 year old!) with a local owner — lots of gifts, cards, jewelry and goodies in addition to excellent framing!

It makes me really question the intent and principles of the Cash Mob that you would include a corporate franchise in this event.

We’d like to leave the nominating up to the community, but also don’t want to turn this into a ballot-box-stuffing effort. And while we don’t do an audit of the business financials, we do make inquiry into both the perceived need, and also what the business contributes in the community.

Barret – thank you for making that nomination. We’re still getting our legs under us from Saturday, and we need to get the ‘nominations’ tab working properly. Hope we can get it working later today. (Our crack team of specialists is on the job! Once it’s up, could you please make the nomination

I would like information on how to become the non profit group that joins with you. Lafayette School and Treatment Center is a non profit day school here in Cville that serves the city and other surrounding counties, as far away as Powhatan and Rockbridge. We serve students 5th thru 12th grade that have emotional or behavioral disorders that keep them from being successful in a traditional educational setting.
Our summer program needs some funds! Can you let me know how to get involved?
Thanks,
Barret Stump, Associate Director

Maybe you should post choices for people to pick from .
Instead of nominating shops that are not in need of help,
