Introducing our Business Ambassador Program
…Because Preserving the Marginal Way Takes All of Us
The Marginal Way Preservation Fund is proud to celebrate the incredible community of individuals and businesses who share our passion for this treasured coastal path. Our growing presence online and across social media has allowed us to connect with people who care deeply about preserving the Marginal Way—and now, we’re excited to shine a spotlight on the local businesses that share this commitment.
The Business Ambassador Program brings together community businesses that value the Marginal Way as much as we do. Through partnership and mutual support, we strengthen both our local business community and this iconic coastal landmark. By highlighting our ambassadors and fostering meaningful connections, we ensure that supporting one another also means supporting the Marginal Way.
As a Business Ambassador, each partner receives recognition through our outreach, marketing, and community engagement efforts, connecting their support directly to the wider Marginal Way community. Every business can choose a way to contribute that fits their style and capacity—whether through special events, a portion of sales, or other creative initiatives.
No matter the size of the partnership, every contribution is valued. Together, we can protect the Marginal Way and strengthen the community that makes it so special.
