ABC10 is proud to recognize the contributions of business owners in the greater Sacramento area and launched the "ABC10 We Stand For You Business of the Month" award. This community-driven award acknowledges businesses going above and beyond to support their community and we need your help.
We are leaning on our community to nominate a local business working to make its community a better place. A select group of Sacramento business and Chambers of Commerce leaders will pick a business of the month from those nominees. Each month a business will be highlighted as our "Business of the Month" in our newscast, our morning lifestyle show, Your California Life and on all ABC10 social media outlets.
A business can be nominated if they meet the following criteria:
- Be a Northern California-based and family-owned company
- Must be considered a small business and operate with 150 employees or less
- Give back to the community in some way i.e. monetary, time (volunteering), item donations, new programs etc.
- Have a clear mission to give back to the community
- Must provide an example of how the nominee is involved and improving the community in a positive way **being involved includes in-person and/or virtual participation at community events, meetings, programs etc.**
The Small Business Administration (SBA) defines a U.S. small business as a concern that:
- Is organized for profit
- Has a place of business in the United States
- Operates primarily within the U.S. or makes a significant contribution to the U.S. economy through payment of taxes or use of American products, materials, or labor
- Is independently owned and operated and is not dominant in its field on a national basis
**Selection will be determined by those who provide a clear picture of the nominee's achievements and impact.**
Nominations can be submitted by anyone close to the business, such as an employee, client, banker, attorney, or other advisor. Business owners can also self-nominate. A business does not need to be a member of a chamber to be nominated.
