In 1994 the Morristown Partnership was established to support the resurgence of downtown Morristown. We take great pride in our ongoing work with other civic and community organizations, as well as local, county and state government agencies, to achieve a vibrant revitalized Morristown business district. Our 25+ years history includes successful initiatives in business recruitment and retention, marketing, promotions, streetscape design improvements, town wide lampposts, events, capital improvement projects and the very popular Morristown Partnership gift certificate program.
In 2020, in response to the COVID 19 pandemic, and in partnership with several very generous donors, we were able to develop and implement the Morristown Partnership Commercial Rent Relief Grant Program. Via this program, grants were awarded to 62 Morristown businesses – all that applied – to pay for (3) three month’s rent beginning in November 2020 and concluding in January 2021; awards were contingent upon benevolent property owners’ commitment to reduce their tenants rent by 20% for those months.
As our community recovers and ultimately continues to grow and evolve, we will forge ahead in our efforts to benefit downtown Morristown, its residents, visitors and thousands of incoming daily commuters. In 2021 we hope to resume our longstanding annual events, namely: Morristown Restaurant Week, Morristown Farmers Market, Meet Me in Morristown, Morristown Festival on the Green, Halloween Trick-or-Treat in Downtown Morristown and the Christmas Festival at the Morristown Green. These events are designed to highlight Morristown’s thriving downtown and increase awareness and appreciation of its historical and cultural significance.
Our commitment, with the support of like-minded businesses and individuals, will ensure the continued success of Morristown. We ask that you invest in our vision by making a tax-deductible* contribution today. Your donation will be put to use immediately and contribute to the lives of thousands in this community!
