About the Foundation
The purpose of the Chamber’s Foundation is to provide the Chamber with meaningful input from cross-sector community partners and provide a forum for the business community to positively impact the economic growth of St. Pete.
The Chamber Foundation attracts funding, creates partnerships, and grows programs that the Chamber, as a membership organization, cannot. The Foundation complements the Chamber’s existing work and strengthens its ability to serve the St. Petersburg community. We accomplish our mission by connecting business and community through education, information, programs, and storytelling.
Stay tuned as the Foundation continues to grow and develop during 2022 and beyond!
