Our Roots

The Newtown Square Business Association started in May 1976 when a group of local owners decided the area needed a stronger, more coordinated voice. They wanted a way for businesses to work together, share goals, and support growth across town.

The group set up a clear structure from the start. The Constitution and By-Laws written in 1976 still guide how we operate. Our members elect new officers every year, which keeps the organization active and accountable. We also filed articles of incorporation with the State of Pennsylvania and earned non-profit status through the IRS, giving the association a solid foundation to serve local businesses.
