WELCOME
About Back to Business This guide is part of a local marketing effort in support of the hospitality sector developed by leading local institutions and community-minded businesses to help promote our region’s recovery. The project was unanimously approved for support by Spokane’s County Commissioners through the CARES Act with the express goal of supporting affected businesses. It should be noted that the Inlander’s editorial coverage remains separate and independent from this marketing effort.
AWESOME TOGETHER
Volume four is focused on retail and local shopping around Spokane County. Through the end of the year, watch the Inlander for more special Back To Business guides focused on businesses in our community, along with special features, sharing even more recovery stories.
Since 1902, Washington Trust Bank’s mission to put people first has never wavered. During these challenging times, we remain committed to what matters most. That dedication continues as our team works tirelessly to help local companies get back to business. Businesses are currently experiencing unprecedented economic hardship related to the outbreak of COVID-19 and it’s going to take all of us working together to support an economic recovery. Fortunately, we believe the Inland Northwest’s greatest asset is how we support each other as a community and rally behind those who need our help the most. Join us in celebrating and supporting the local businesses that make our region unique. We can all help business owners, employees, and their families thrive—buy local, pick up a meal to-go, surprise a friend with a gift card, post a positive review on social media, or even offer meaningful words of encouragement. It’s important that we all do what we can to make a difference. If there’s one thing we’re certain of, it’s that we’ll get through this together. We are #AwesomeTogether.
BUsinesses are working hard to serve customers and stay safe. Finding ways for everyone to connect with area businesses is critical in keeping our community moving forward during this challenging time.
