Winooski established a Downtown Designation in 2001. Since that time, Downtown Winooski (formerly The Winooski Community Partnership) has committed to comprehensive growth and revitalization. We seek to make Downtown Winooski a better place to live, visit, work, shop, do business, dine and be entertained. We utilize a consensus-building program that fosters community pride and encourages the growth of small businesses, employment and income opportunities, tax revenues, property values and general quality of life.
In addition to tax relief for businesses, Downtown Winooski brings businesses together with residents to make our community even more vibrant. We are committed to bringing exciting events, opportunities and chances for the community to come together and support each other to Winooski each year.
Your tax-deductible donation will support vital communications to the business community, the Winooski Farmers Market, collaborative meetings between businesses and partner organizations, Small Business Saturday, Winooski Wednsdays, Juneteenth and all the other things we do for Winooski. Your support will also allow us to maintain the Downtown Designation and encourage more business and residential activity in our city center.
We accept donations via PayPal ([email protected]) or checks payable to Downtown Winooski mailed or dropped off to 27 W Allen St, Winooski, VT 05404
