Have you started your Christmas shopping yet or are you more of a last-minute kind of person? I don’t want to admit it, but I’m 100% a last minute kind of person. Love on Local cards for everyone this year, I suppose!

Are you looking for a gift for all ages and types of people that supports the community and local economy? Look no further than a Love on Local card! Learn more about Love on Local here: https://marquette.org/loveonlocal/

This year, make sure to shop local to support your community and help rebuild the local economy!
