We Got This LG!
Giving credit...
Thank you to Maya Holton, a 2018 LGHS grad and her mom Whitney for providing the inspiration for the We Got This LG! campaign. We first saw this handmade sign, "We Got This LG" on a sign affixed to the Los Gatos Theatre and the rest is history. Thanks Maya and Whitney!

With your support we will be able to keep our doors open and continue to fight for the business community and Los Gatos.
The Chamber of Commerce, just like every business, is experiencing financial impacts due to COVID-19. Our ability to generate revenue has been greatly diminished due to the protocols necessary to control this pandemic. Despite all of these challenges, we have made our resources, webinars, and public policy advocacy available to the general public during this challenging time.
If you are interested in supporting our efforts to be a convener and a champion for stronger communities, we would be grateful for your financial contribution of any size. We look forward to continuing to serve our businesses and the community.

Where's Waldo?
Learn something about the Town's Budget
|
Los Gatos Community Alliance (LGCA)
is hosting a game to educate our residents on the Town budget. Be the first to find Waldo and receive a $100 gift certificate to a Los Gatos Restaurant.
LGCA is interested in making town finances more transparent and easier for the average citizen to understand. But there are other urgent matters at hand. LGCA is concerned about all of the Los Gatos businesses and their employees who have been slammed by CV 19, so they created a "game" which can easily be played from the comfort of home. It will educate and inform about the Los Gatos budgeting process and help our local restaurants. There will be 6 winners, each will receive a $100 gift certificate to a Los Gatos Restaurant. It's a way to get more people interested in the town budget and to help some of the local restaurants.
Go to the LGCA homepage (
www.lgca.town
) for the rules and learn how you can win a gift certificate to one of our many fine restaurants.
