For over 20 years, CLF has supported the independent business community through public education, policy advocacy, direct assistance, and community-building. We are a nonprofit sustained primarily by membership dues from locally owned small businesses. Our members contribute from already thin margins because they believe in our ability to promote a stronger local economy and a more vibrant community.

Sponsoring CLF is more than a marketing opportunity — it's an investment in the community you serve. We believe in partnerships that create real, mutual value, which is why every sponsor receives an annual CLF Membership with access to our events, resources, and complimentary admission to the 617 Day Small Business Summit.Have a partnership idea in mind? Let's build something together.
