During these challenging and uncertain times, we’ve witnessed our local business community make many willing sacrifices to ensure the health and safety of the greater community. We’ve also watched their kindness and generosity shine through.
This page is dedicated to highlighting our Island businesses, who, in their own time of struggle, embody the PEI spirit by finding innovative and creative ways to support their fellow Islanders.
We want to see this list grow! Please share your “Bright Side of Business” moment, by using the hashtag #brightsideofbusiness or by emailing it to [email protected].
