About Chambers of Commerce - What is a Chamber?
Chambers of commerce are membership-based associations
of employers and other business entities organized to meet the
needs of their members and to enhance the economic vitality and
quality of life in the markets they serve.
Membership is voluntary. The decision to join
and maintain membership is driven by the perceived value of membership.
Successful chambers closely monitor the needs of the business
community and respond to them in a timely fashion.
Chambers exist to help their members grow by creating
marketing opportunities, controlling costs, gaining access to
decision-makers, facilitating compliance with government laws
and regulations, influencing public policy, and helping their
members and community prepare for the future.
Chambers are increasingly complex organizations.
Chambers are often involved in partnerships with other organizations
and/or governments to pursue specific tasks such as attracting
employers to the community, convention and visitor development,
downtown revitalization, or workforce development.
Chambers of commerce are eligible for tax-exempt
status as not-for-profit corporations under Section 501 (c) (6)
of the IRS Code. However, not-for-profit does not mean that the
organization should not operate like a business. The pricing of
dues and other programs and services offered should allow the
organization to maintain its fiscal integrity.
