Ask local businesses to sign the Open to All® business pledge show their support! Here are quick and easy ways to reach out to your favorite inclusive business and ask them to sign the pledge:

VISIT YOUR FAVORITE LOCAL BUSINESSES

Next time you’re at your favorite local business or on their social media page, let them know about Open to All and ask them to sign the business pledge. Print out an Open to All flyer.

MAKE THE CASE

Connect with the owner and explain why you support Open to All and why, as a business that supports diversity and inclusion, they should sign the Open to All business pledge. If the owner isn’t there, leave the flyer and encourage the business to visit OpenToAll.com to learn more.

MAKE THE ASK

Once you’ve made the case with the business owner, ask them to sign the business pledge online or fill out the pledge card on the back of the flyer. On the back of the flyer is a pledge card. Have them fill it out—it will only take a minute!—and hand it back to you.

  • Later, when you get home, enter their information online below and officially register the business. Don’t forget to tell the businesses that they will need to look for a confirmation email from Open to All to complete their registration.
  • Alternatively, consider bringing a tablet or a phone with you so you can sign businesses up online directly. Remind them that they can make a $10, tax-deductible contribution when the sign the pledge and Open to All will mail them a window cling. Note: It’s important that businesses sign the Open to All pledge before putting up a window cling. We want to make sure all businesses are counted, but we can’t do that unless they sign the pledge online and join officially.
