Chamber of Commerce Week

February 15th marks the beginning of Chamber of Commerce Week in British Columbia, an opportunity for our Chamber to demonstrate the outstanding value we bring to the community of Chilliwack.

While each Chamber of Commerce is as unique as the community in which it operates, the value of The Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce is grounded by three areas of importance:  advocacy, benefits and services.

The advocacy efforts of the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce represent some of the most important work that we do.  The Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce raises issues that concern both our members and our community at large with the Provincial and Federal government.  By giving these issues a voice beyond the local level, the Chilliwack Chamber provides much needed input to public policy which benefits local economic and social well-being.

Benefits and services constitute two other areas of our focus.   The Chilliwack Chamber provides direct benefit and service programs for our members, helping them put their very best foot forward in business, which in turn stimulates our local economy.  Beyond our membership the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce is hard at work promoting and assisting our community.  Whether it be hosting and organizing local events or lobbying the Provincial Government, the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce’s contributions are a tangible part of the City of Chilliwack.

The Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce is a leader in action.  Chamber of Commerce Week serves not only to recognize and applaud that action, but also to bring further awareness of the Chamber Network’s influence and importance to the City of Chilliwack , to British Columbia , to members of the public and Chamber members alike.
