The Power of Community. The Reason why We added a Community Page to Our Website.

Have you ever taken a stroll or drive through your towns main road and noticed the charm and character of your community? What sets your unique community apart from others is the local small business mom and pop shops, restaurants, beaches, tourist shops, coffee shops, antique malls, studios and so much more.

The COVID-19 pandemic is unlike anything we've seen in our lifetime, and unfortunately has affected the health and well-being of not just our local communities, small businesses, and financial markets but it's affects have been felt worldwide. Keeping our communities safe and thriving should be our first priority!

While we continue to live in uncertain times with lots of unknowns, at Leonard Financial Group, we wanted to be proactive and help by creating a Community page on our website. Our Community page provides a resource of socially distanced local 'Things to do' in Brevard County to share with our clients, friends, and neighbors within our community. Why? The answer is simple really: 

1. We are all in this together - We care about our you, our clients, and their families. 

We want to assure you that not only do we care about your financial health, but we care about you, your family, and your physical health. By providing a resource of socially distanced places to visit our hope is that our clients, families, and neighbors are able to take this time to discover what our beautiful community has to offer and enjoy it safely!

2. We support local small businesses 

As a locally family owned and operated business in Brevard County, it is important to us to show support to other small businesses in our community especially during a time like now when so many business have felt the affects of the virus from budget cuts to closures and more. Small businesses are so important to the community in which they are established. They contribute to local economies by bringing growth and innovation to the community. They provide tremendous tax revenue and keep money in the community. They increase the culture of the community and provide job opportunities that larger corporations cant offer. Local Small business owners are vested in their communities, they live in them, they are our neighbors, their kids go to school there, and they care about our community and it's future. They count on our patronage in order to stay afloat and every transaction is important to them. 

When we support small businesses, small businesses succeed.  In turn, communities succeed. When communities succeed, America succeeds. Let’s all succeed together, and stay safe while doing so!
