"Serving" Diversity?…..and adding Membership Benefits

On the way to fulfilling its mission, LDDI has played a leading role in developing what I see as the most successful, multi-use neighborhood in the western United States! We have art galleries co-existing with law firms, young internet upstarts doing business next to traditional print shops and residents neighboring with restaurants and sports bars.

Because of LoDo's diverse makeup, our members join LDDI for differing reasons and we're called upon to be many thins to many people. To serve this diversity, we have a variety of member benefits and privileges. I'll be highlighting some of these over the next few months.

LDDI also tries to provide a variety of opportunities by which our members can offer additional support to the organization. The newest and most exciting of these opportunities is the "affinity" partnership LDDI has formed with the rapidly growing e-commerce company, Big Planet.

Each time you make a purchase through Big Planet, you'll automatically make a "donation" to LDDI. Big Planet sends LDDI, a non-profit organization, a percentage f each sale. (Check out their website at www.bigplanet.com and read this month's cover story on how you can purchase needed products while supporting LDDI.)

This partnership brings funds to an LDDI member while supporting LDDI's efforts.

I'd love to discuss ways you can partner with LDDI to bring business to your organization?….and, perhaps, support LDDI or offer discounts to its members. Call me at 303-628-5482
