New Leaf (2nd St) – Fall River

The strongest local thread runs through Corky Row. In its licensing materials, New Leaf proposed giving the Corky Row Neighborhood Association $1,000 annually or 1% of gross sales revenue, whichever was greater. The plan directed that support toward spring and fall community cleanups and the association’s annual June Community Day, with at least three New Leaf employees slated to participate in each event. This was a proposal, not evidence that the donations or employee participation occurred. Read alongside Fall River Reporter’s account of the 2019 outreach meeting, it shows that neighborhood involvement was written into the company’s application-era pitch. For shoppers weighing community commitments, the distinction matters: the record documents a specific pledge but does not establish its fulfillment.
