Pledge to shop & eat at local businesses from May 3–10!


Have you signed the Shop Your Val­ues Week Pledge?

In March, NYC-based startup ethikus launched the “Shop Your Val­ues Week” pledge with hopes to cre­ate a city-wide move­ment in sup­port of eth­i­cal and sus­tain­able busi­nesses in The Big Apple. Shop Your Val­ues Week, will con­nect thou­sands of con­sci­en­tious con­sumers with 200+ eth­i­cal and sus­tain­able busi­nesses in the five bor­oughs of Brook­lyn, Bronx, Man­hat­tan, Queens, and Staten Island from May 3rd – 10th, 2012 by offer­ing free sam­ples, dis­counts, and spe­cial events to pro­mote a health­ier, hap­pier NYC.

In order to par­tic­i­pate, indi­vid­u­als will sign an online pledge at ShopY​our​Val​ues​.com to sup­port busi­nesses that ‘do good’ with their every­day prac­tices. By sign­ing the pledge, par­tic­i­pants agree to the following:

  1. Pledge to shop locally, eth­i­cally, & sus­tain­ably from May 3rd – 10th in NYC.
  2. Receive dis­counts at par­tic­i­pat­ing stores across NYC & free admis­sion to spe­cial events.
  3. Feel good about con­tribut­ing to a NYC econ­omy that they believe in.
