We’re an engine of community engagement and promotion: Charlottesville is home to a never-ending supply of new businesses, charities, crowdsourcing projects, coffee shops, farm-to-table food initiatives, musical projects, health and wellness for any standard of living, and much, much more. The primary goal of this blog is to connect the UVa students with all things local, as well as cross-promote with businesses through local cooperative trade. Secondly, it will also provide and expose students and young adults to a wider selection of different and enjoyable opportunities both on and off Grounds to fit a range of budgets and interests. Lastly, Cville Niche aims to be a resource and forum for reader networking, suggestions, questions and reviews.
