Because strong businesses make strong communities
What We Do
Holiday Tree Lighting & Community Celebrations
What We Do:
We host the annual tree lighting in Glen Head, complete with music, lights, and holiday cheer. It’s a festive night that brings the whole town together and kicks off the season.
Why It Matters:
Community traditions create connection. Events like this give families a reason to come together and support local businesses during the holidays.
Scholarships for Local Students
What We Do:
Each year, GCBA awards scholarships to two Glen Head High School seniors — one for academic excellence and one based on financial need.
Why It Matters:
Supporting local students is an investment in the future of our community and a way to show young people that their hometown believes in them.
Food Drives & Support for Local Food Pantries
What We Do:
GCBA organizes food drives and supports local pantries to help families facing food insecurity in our community.
Why It Matters:
Access to food is a basic need. When businesses and neighbors come together, we can make a real, local impact.
Support for Local Nonprofits
What We Do:
We collaborate with select nonprofit partners to support community programs through defined initiatives and seasonal efforts.
Why It Matters:
Strong partnerships allow local organizations to do what they do best — and help our community thrive.
Holiday Wreaths & Memorial Day Flags
What We Do:
Each year, we hang holiday wreaths along Glen Head Road and place flags for Memorial Day — a simple but meaningful way to honor local traditions.
Why It Matters:
These visible acts show pride in our town and respect for those who serve, helping our streets feel welcoming and cared for.
