In 2013 EVCC began working with small business owners to promote and advocate for the small and independent businesses in the East Village. Using funding from AvenueNYC, a program of the NYC Department of Small Business Services, and the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce, EVCC is working to develop a merchants association. A Steering Committee of local merchants has given the association its official name, the East Village Independent Merchants Association (EVIMA), and is planning the inaugural meeting for EVIMA at the end of January.
