Join the Sullivan 180 Merchant Discount Program

Support volunteers in their efforts to build a healthy community.

 [LIBERTY, NY] – Sullivan 180 announced that the Merchant Discount Program will return in 2024 to support grant recipients in building a healthy community through people, places, and policy. The Merchant Discount Program encourages businesses to set a specified discount on supplies, materials, or services and incentivizes grant recipients to spend locally for their projects. The Merchant Discount Program is made possible in partnership with the Sullivan County Chamber of Commerce.

Sullivan 180 offers grants to schools, community groups and municipalities participating in our grant programs.  These programs include: Beautification, the Catskill Edible Garden Project, Community Development, Municipal Partnership and Empowering a Healthier Generation. Grant amounts range depending on the program and project.

Local businesses help groups leverage grant dollars while at the same time encouraging local spending. To participate, businesses offer a discount rate on products or services for Sullivan 180 projects. The business sets the discount amount. Discounts typically range from 10% to 20% (or more). Although this program is in partnership with the Chamber of Commerce, you are not required to be a member to participate.

“By participating in this valuable program, local businesses can join volunteer groups who have collectively raised several million dollars that have been reinvested in building healthy communities,” said Elise Yamen from Sullivan 180.
