On Friday, June 19, 2020, an anonymous benefactor began to promote The Loft on Main and local businesses. This person provided The Loft on Main, 112 E. Main Street, Morrison, IL, with $10 gift certificates, to be used at select businesses. Certificates are given to anyone who purchases more than $50 of artwork.
Morrison businesses included Original Taco; Family Chef Restaurant; China House; Fat Boy’s; Hero’s Bar & Grill; Happy Joe’s Pizza; Isle of Rhodes; Embraced; Original Taco.
Family Chef Restaurant, 701 W. Lincolnway, will benefit from a second round of certificates earned from Monday, August 24, through Sunday, August 30.
“The selection of businesses is at the discretion of our donor,” stated Sharon Boyles. “The goal is to encourage residents to shop locally and support our businesses. Each week, a different Morrison business will be selected.” Thank you for your patronage! Come support our community.
