2020 brought challenges to businesses all over the world, including The Iowa Great Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce and the businesses and communities we serve. In an effort to respond quickly to the needs of our community, the Chamber has worked tirelessly to become a “go-to” resource for not only our member businesses but also our community. We created a COVID-19 Facebook Group to provide restaurant service updates, added a dedicated COVID-19 page on the Chamber website with local and state resource information, delivered gift cards to struggling businesses as part of the Fareway Gift Card program grant, and launched two dedicated social media campaigns – #RememberaMember and #SupportLocalBoji – to encourage community members to visit and support Chamber Member businesses.
As our community moves forward in these uncertain times, the Chamber will continue to support and advocate for our Members through referrals for your business, marketing and visibility opportunities, and of course networking opportunities as allowed. Your membership and your sponsorships enable our team to continue to work to meet the needs of the Iowa Great Lakes Area business community. Show your support on October 21, 2020, and every day, by continuing your membership investment and encouraging other businesses to join the Iowa Great Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce.
Together we are stronger!
