What is a Chamber of Commerce?
Chamber of Commerce is a business and community association, generally incorporated as a 501(c)(6) business. Chambers are not part of local state or federal government, through they do often partner with government to accomplish chamber missions.

Chambers of commerce are funded by membership dues as well as non-dues items such as events, sponsorships, contracts, and sales of products and services. The vast majority of the chamber membership roll is small businesses - businesses with fewer than 35 employees.

A Chamber of Commerce, rather than being narrowly focused on one particular industry, issue, cause or activity, focuses on a broad range of activities and support both businesses and communities.
