Chamber Serves Committee
Vision
We envision a Chamber where service is part of our culture; where businesses uplift local organizations, volunteers feel supported, and community partnerships thrive to create a stronger, more prosperous St. George.
Core Beliefs
- Service Builds Connection: Service brings us together across backgrounds and industries.
- Thriving Community = Thriving Business: A safe, successful community benefits people and businesses alike.
- Character Through Compassion: How we treat our most vulnerable reflects who we are.
- Shared Responsibility: When we humanize and serve one another, we look out for each other’s success, safety, and well-being.
Values
The committee supports Chamber goals by strengthening community prosperity, deepening member engagement, expanding meaningful connections, elevating the local economy, and identifying community needs through nonprofit partnerships.
Guiding Principles
- Partnership Over Reinvention: Support existing nonprofits rather than creating new programs.
- Organization & Clarity: Plan ahead and communicate clearly.
- Time or Treasure: Provide options to volunteer or give financially/in-kind.
- Accessible for All: Make service easy for businesses of all sizes to participate.
- Quarterly Service Rhythm: Offer at least one organized service opportunity each quarter.
- Impact Over Volume: Measure success by meaningful outcomes, not the number of events.
