Monticello businesses will have the chance to sell gift cards to the community through a new program being introduced by the Monticello Chamber of Commerce.

Chamber Executive Director Shelly Stock indicates at their website, monticellochamber.org, will soon have a feature to buy gift cards to local businesses. She says this is a great way to support a local business even if you can't get out right now to patronize them.

According to Stock, the gift cards are similar to the Chamber Bucks program, however, the Chamber Bucks program does not put cash in the business pockets until they get used.

Stock says this is a great way to show appreciation to teachers and healthcare workers while supporting local businesses at the same time. 

Stock indicates the monticellochamber.org for information regarding this program. She hopes to have it up and going in the next week.

Also at their website, you can find information about what businesses are open and what services they are offering.
