What is the Chamber?

Our Mission

“To serve as the voice of the business community and to work to ensure economic success in central Elgin.”


What We Are

The St. Thomas & District Chamber of Commerce is a voluntary, not-for-profit business organization which works to create and retain jobs within central Elgin County. The Chamber is part of the world-wide Chamber of Commerce/Boards of Trade network. Locally, the St. Thomas & District Chamber of Commerce recognizes over 600 businesses as Members and over 1,200 individuals as voting representatives.The Chamber is a specialist in information and communication, maintaining an extensive library of data about our region & Member-businesses.


What We Are Not

The St. Thomas & District Chamber of Commerce is not a department of government, a civic club, a social service organization, a charitable institution, a private publicity agency, an affiliate of any political party, or a profit-making enterprise.


Finances

The St. Thomas & District Chamber of Commerce is financed by the business community alone. Membership fees provide approximately one-third of the Chambers’ revenue. The balance is earned through projects, programs and activities.


Allocation of Funds

Last year, the Chamber hosted and arranged 20 public and private events for the benefit of the community and our Members, in addition to meetings among volunteers within the Board of Directors, our standing committees and task forces.
