Downtown Topeka Inc. Announces Holiday Gift-Card Giveaway

Downtown Topeka Inc. announced today it is kicking off the 2021 holiday season with a new gift card giveaway. Beginning Nov. 4, individuals may enter to win a $50 gift card to the downtown Topeka business of their choice by completing the Momentum 2027 community survey.

That survey is available here. Entries will be accepted until Nov. 25. Winners will be announced Friday, Dec. 3, prior to the Miracle on Kansas Avenue parade.

“Tis the season to be merry and shop local,” said Rhiannon Friedman, president of Downtown Topeka. “Our downtown businesses are excited to provide the best in holiday service. This gift card giveaway will allow people to support our Momentum 2027 strategy and earn a chance to support our downtown community just in time for the holiday season.”

“Our Momentum 2022 strategy has been an exciting success,” said Michelle Cuevas-Stubblefield, senior vice president of strategy for the Greater Topeka Partnership. “I am happy to see Downtown Topeka offer this extra incentive to participate in our Momentum 2027 planning efforts. This is a great way for residents of Topeka and Shawnee County to make their voice heard — and possibly earn some shopping money for the holidays!”

“Small business is big business in Shawnee County,” said Laurie Pieper, vice president of small business development for the Greater Topeka Partnership. “67% of every dollar spent at a small business stays in the local economy. This holiday season, everyone is hustling around to find the perfect gift. This giveaway is a great way to win a chance to surprise someone with a gift from a local downtown business!”
