While many consumers have turned to big box retailers to fulfill their shopping needs during the COVID-19 pandemic, 'I Stand With Small' is an initiative created by United By Blue that aims to bring more awareness to the many small businesses that are offering promotions and discounts to drive online purchases during this difficult time.
I Stand With Small spotlights a number of businesses on its website, including Forsake, tentree, MiiR, Fair Harbor, Ivory Ella, Sunski, and Jetty. All of these businesses are dedicated to making a positive impact on the world, whether it be through their sustainable practices or their charitable contributions.
All of the businesses featured in the I Stand With Small initiative are offering discounts ranging from 20% to 40%, which consumers can take advantage of by using the code "STANDWITHSMALL."
