What is Sugar House Strong?
The #SugarHouseStrong campaign started in May of 2020 amidst the COVID pandemic by a group of volunteers from the Sugar House Community Council who wanted to help local businesses.
The videos were a way for businesses to tell the greater community about what they were doing to keep customers safe and grow awareness for each individual business. The campaign moved over to the Chamber when the Chamber moved under the umbrella of the Community Council in January 2021. You can now view each story here.
