Kootenay Community Dollars

It's a system that strengthens local businesses, enriches community groups and increases the spending power of people in your region. It makes it easy—and desirable—to be generous, changing the whole dynamic of the way we interact. It acts as a loyalty program for businesses, a fundraiser for our non-profit sector and community builder.

Businesses in Fernie, Nelson, Kimberley and other Columbia Basin communities are committing to the well-being of our local economies by signing onto this elegant local currency model. You need to register to be a part of the action, so read on to learn how.
